Kid's Cookies and Cupcakes Decorating Workshop

�� Calling All Young Bakers! ��
Join us for a sweet and creative experience at the Kid's Cookie & Cupcake Decorating Workshop, a fun-filled event leading up to the 3rd Annual Citrus County Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Leadership Gala!
As we prepare for our 3rd Annual Citrus County Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Leadership Gala, we center ourselves once again on the powerful themes of LEADERSHIP, LEGACY, & LOVE.
As we honor the past and bridge to the future, we pay special tribute to a unique and beloved part of our community — the legacy of baking, passed down through generations with care, creativity, and heart.
We honor some of the greatest bakers in Citrus County, who have passed through time and whose hands and hearts nourished families, communities, and traditions: Oather Belcher, Louise Brooks, Mary Gray Bunch, Willie Mae Edwards, Theola Bunch McCray, Osie Mizzell, Earnestine Scriven Schlueter, Freddie Lee Simmons, Rena Mae Washington, and Elijah Wilson.
These remarkable men and women not only baked with love — they led with it. Their legacy reminds us that leadership often begins at home, and that love can be passed down one recipe at a time.
In their honor, we now pass these skills on to the next generation through our “Kid’s Cookies & Cupcakes Workshop,” nurturing creativity and confidence in our youth, and continuing a sweet tradition of excellence.
Let us celebrate their memory, their contributions, and the future they inspire. Sign your Little(s) up for this wonderful day of fun in a historic canning kitchen (and former school)! So much history and so much fun!
