'Soup of the Americas' competition on Columbus Day, October 14th at 12 PM

The Lane Memorial Library presents our second annual Soup of the Americas family cook-off day on Monday, October 14th at 12 noon.  We invite members of our community to enter your family favorite soup featuring an ingredient unique to the New World to win!  Soups made with at least one 'New World' ingredient will be served upstairs at noon and judged both by a popular vote and a Chef's Choice.  Prizes include a gift basket and gift certificate to Philbrick's Fresh Market worth $50 for first place, a $25 gift certificate to Philbrick's Fresh Market for second place, and a $25 gift certificate to Savory Square Bistro for Chef's Choice.

A registration form listing the 10 'New World' ingredients is available on our website, with printed copies at the upstairs Circulation Desk.  Please return your registration form by Wednesday, October 9th, and bring your entry in a crock pot to the library between 11:00 and 11:30 AM on the day of competition.  Soups will be served at 12:00 PM, and voting will close at 12:45 PM.  There will be a professional chef presentation courtesy of Chez Boucher in the Lane Room at 1 PM, followed by an announcement of the winners.
