Gingerbread Houses 2008
Theme 2008: R-eko: Good ideas for troubelsome times
R-eko is the chosen theme for this year’s Gingerbread House Contest and Show. The theme will hopefully raise both economic, ecologic and acoustic (echo) answers. As usual, the contestants are free to put their own spin on it, as is evident from last years entries.
The contestants are divided into four groups:
1) Architects
2) Bakers
3) Persons aged up to 12 years
4) Everyone else
The contest is anonymous until the prize ceremony on December 14, 14.00.
Between December 9 and 13 visitors can vote for their favorite entry. Voting slips are obtainable from the information desk. All voters qualify for participation in a prize draw.
The jury have made their final decsions. Winners will be announced at the prize ceremony.

Christina Schutrick, architect
