Grab your buddies and cook for a great cause!

No Pressure, Just Fun!
This is NOT a high-stakes, high-pressure cooking competition and there is NO REGISTRATION FEE.
If you love cooking on your EGG because it's fun and you've got some special recipes the world needs to EGG-sperience... then you'll have a blast cooking at our EGGfest.
Why You Should Cook
EGGfest directly benefits the Keystone Kops Charity.
Proceeds from our event go directly to this fantastic group as they provide lodging and transportation assistance to children and their families during their care at Shrine Hospitals across the region.
During EGGfest, this distinguished unit of the Abu Ben Adhem Shrine Mosque helps us organize, set up, and execute EGGfest while selling drinks and RAFFLE TICKETS during the event.
Last year alone, we raised over $9,000.00 for this charity during EGGfest!
For EGGfest to be a success, we need Cooking Teams!
