BLURB FROM THE GINGERBREAD MAN...

We're rounding 2nd base, headed for 3rd and its looking like a home run as we approach the date for 2nd Annual 2009 New York State Gingerbread House Competition!

Our 2009 television commercial for this “way cool” event has been posted on our web site along with You-Tube. Thank you to Time-Warner Media Sales and all of our sponsors for they made this possible for.

Won’t you help us reach our goal this year? We are working very hard to have 65 gingerbread houses decorated and on display this November 14, 2009.

Would you like to spend the day with us? Or, do you know someone who would like to build a gingerbread house, compete for cash prizes while helping Chemung County Habitat for Humanity?

We are challenging groups, organizations, businesses and even our own sponsors to participate by building a gingerbread house for the event and help support Habitat for Humanity. We would love to have the girl scouts, boy scouts, academic clubs, soccer teams, baseball teams, church groups, youth groups or any other group or organization become involved!

Its “soooo easy” even a gingerbread man can do it! Build your house at home and decorate it at the Arnot Mall!
