Mara - Thanks for stopping by.  The cake auction is one of those amazing small town events.  It's been a huge success for years and continues to grow.  Cake makers get real carried away with the elaborate cakes/sweets and the prizes they include with the cakes (trips, diamond jewelry, dinners, etc.).  It a crazy day and should prove to be bigger and better than last year.
