It was no easy decision, but it was one that had to be made.
Judges Kim Hutton, Rick Fairbairn, Judy Phillips and The Morning Star’s own Richard Rolke faced a difficult challenge with so many excellent entries in both the traditional and non-traditional butter tart categories.
This year’s Best Homemade Butter Tart Contest at the Lumby Butter Tart Festival Sept. 9 was again sponsored by Rogers Foods of Armstrong, which supplied gifts for first and second place winners, ribbons for all winners and gift baskets for a draw.
The winners:
Traditional Category:
1st — Randy McDermid
2nd — Charlotte Blanchard
3rd — Barbara Quibell
Non-Traditional Category:
1st — Kitty Hertgers
2nd — Judy Farago
3rd — Tina-Marie Christian
