Speed Eating Pies for Breast Cancer Research

A total of $650 was raised during the effort at Rocky Point Middle School.

Rocky Point Middle School teachers and students cheered on as 20 faculty and staff members sported colorful costumes and competed head to head in a no-hands, whipped cream pie eating contest to raise funds to support Breast Cancer research.

The whipped cream pies, which were topped with pink sprinkles, symbolically represented the school’s effort to increase awareness of the cause. The school community donated loose change during lunch to vote on which contestant they thought would win. A total of $650 was raised during the effort and teacher Darren Goldstein was crowded the winner.
