Your assignment: Taste 25 different pies and pick three winners
A chocolate pecan pie won this year's Relay for Life pie-baking contest.
Judges were: Jeff Stratton from Citizens National Bank, and Michael Donley, Bluffton Family Recreation sports coordinator and office manager. Their assignment covered 25 delicious homemade pies.
They chose the winning pies:

2nd-Katie Hohenbrink’s Red, White and Blueberry Pie and
3rd-Annette Stuckey’s Raspberry Buttermilk Pie.
Marj is from Arlington, Katie is from Bluffton and Annette is from Jenera.
