Ready, set… bake (or break)! Join Why Me for Nailed It {or Failed It}, an in-person cake-off that’s equal parts fundraiser and hot mess. Inspired ever so loosely
 by the hit Netflix show, teams will go head-to-head in a race against

Technical High School in Upton. $100 per team (max 5 to a team) to

be flawless masterpieces. Others… well, let’s just say they’ll have character.&nbsp;
Whether you Nail It or Fail It, every laugh, every sprinkle, and every frosting mishap supports Why Me &amp; Sherry’s House, a local nonprofit providing support to families fighting childhood cancer.
Come for the competition. Stay for the chaos. Leave knowing you made a difference. <a href="https://onecau.se/nailedit-whyme" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Teams are limited so sign up today!&nbsp;Details and FAQ also in event link.</a>
