The lottery will be open until July 16 — register before it closes. Caregivers will be notified by July 19 if their kids got in.
Kids will be making recipes like cookie nachos, caramel cheesecake cookies, french silk pie cookies, and blueberry crumble cookies. All recipes are nut-free, but they will contain eggs, dairy, and gluten. Please note ingredient substitutions are not possible.
Registration for the camp is by lottery, due to high interest levels. The camp lottery will runs until Tuesday, July 16. Participants should only register for the Food Explorers Cookie Camp lottery if they would be able to attend all five days of classes.
Caregivers will be notified by July 19 if their child is selected for the Cookie Camp. Adults will need to fill out an emergency contact form in order to secure their child’s spot in the camp.
If you have any questions, please reach out to Samantha Cardone, children’s program coordinator.
