First Annual Cake Walk at Grey Towers!
June 15, 2025
12:00 pm - 3:00 pm

Got a talent for baking cakes or pies? Ever been to a Cake Walk?
For the first time in Grey Towers history, we’ll be hosting a Cake Walk as part of our annual Picnic with the Pinchots event, with a free concert and performance of FernGully on the grounds of the estate on Father’s Day.
Here’s how the Cake Walk works:
- Picnic guests are encouraged to bake homemade, non-refrigerated cakes and pies to bring to the free picnic, along with their picnic foods and blankets.
- Your culinary delight may be traditional, fun, creative, decorative, or outrageous.
- Along with the confection, bring a paper or card with the description of the cake or pie.
- At 12:45 pm, you and other entrants will set up your cake or pie on tables supplied by Grey Towers.
- At 1 pm, all entries will be judged and ribbons will be awarded.
- At 1:10 pm, fellow picnic-goers will be invited to start the Cake Walk and indulge in samples from as many cakes and pies as they wish.
So fire up your oven and join the FUN!
