Registration is required, but the system isn't up yet.
Keep a eye out here or at http://www.southsidepie.com/ for
the registration procedure.

General rules
1. Anyone who wants to bake a sweet pie is invited to enter.
2. The pie must fit into ONE of the four Categories: fruit, nut, sweet potato/pumpkin, or creme.
3. Contestants are limited to one entry per category but may enter in as many categories as they like. Each entry requires $25 registration fee.
3) Each pie entry must include a name of the baker or team (a team may be mother and son, a couple, best friends, etc.).
4) Online registration must be fully completed at the time of entry, including the submission of $25 registration fee.
5) Each entered pie must have a unique name – like “Fall Harvest Pumpkin” or “Princess Pie” or “Sparky.” Pie names alone will be used for judging, names of the bakers will be revealed after finalists are chosen.
6) Each contest entry includes TWO IDENTICAL PIES delivered to the Hyde Park Neighborhood Club, 5480 S. Kenwood Avenue between 11:00 a.m. and noon.
7. Each pie should be in a 9-inch pan. It should have at least a bottom crust (top crust is optional). It should be delivered in a disposable pie pan – we cannot store and return pie pans. However, if you are willing to take the chance to lose your pie pan, we will not refuse such pans. Make sure you label them well and ask for them after the event is over.
8. Entry pies cannot require any special handling – refrigeration or heating will not be available or allowed on-site. Please plan accordingly.
9. The finished pie cannot contain raw/uncooked eggs (egg whites or egg yolks). If eggs are used in filling preparation, they must reach 160 degrees to be considered cooked.

Top 3 winners in each category will receive ribbons and prizes and be featured on our website as well as in various promotional materials in the future.
