Sweet Freedom Cake Contest

The McCormick Tribune Freedom Museum, the nation’s first museum dedicated to freedom and the First Amendment, opened its doors last April. In celebration of the museum’s one-year anniversary, we will be sponsoring a Sweet Freedom Cake Contest.

(Stage 1) The competition seeks cake entries, by Friday, February 23, 2007, that embody,
“What Freedom Means to Me?” A panel of Freedom Museum and McCormick Tribune
Foundation employees will determine 5-7 finalists.

(Stage 2) The top 5-7 finalists will be invited to display the creation at the Museum on Saturday, April 14, 2007, where the Museum visitors will have an opportunity to vote on the cake that best represents freedom.

Each finalist is expected to cover all costs associated with the creation of their cake. The contest winner will be awarded a $500 cash prize and the McCormick Tribune Freedom Museum will make a $500 donation in the winner’s name to a local approved charity.
