Festival guest volunteers will assist the chefs as they prepare their creations, sharing recipes and lots of samples so that the audience can determine the winning team. The Whoopie Pie Filling Contest will begin at noon on Friday, June 19th and participants will receive a tin of icing to fill the cake-like whoopie pie halves. Contestants will be timed to see who can fill their whoopie pies the fastest.

Winners of both contests will receive gift certificates. The Berry Jam Festival, which runs from 9:00am to 6:00pm on both days, is sponsored by Fulton Steamboat Inn and Eden Resort .
