2nd Annual Love Your Cookies – a holiday cookie competition coming November 16, 2024!

Welcome Summer! 🌞The warmer weather has arrived and to cool you down a bit, think about the winter holiday season. What does the winter holiday season have? COOKIES! Yes, we will be hosting our 2nd annual Love Your Cookies – a holiday cookie competition on Saturday, November 16, 2024 at the KoC Columbus Lodge, Whitney Ave., Hamden.

It’s time to start thinking about what cookie you will bake and how you’ll decorate your table. Below are a few pics from last year. What a fun time! Details on baker registration and tickets to the event will be available soon. Stay tuned, stay cool and Love Yours……..

Cookies, Raffles, Music, & Beanies

In two weeks, we will be filling ourselves with dozens of delicious treats! As you digest from one round of cookies and before moving on to the next round, take some time to look over raffle items and Love Yours merchandise. We have new merchandise to show you: beanies, baseball hats and crew neck sweatshirts.

Our raffle prizes include gift cards from Café Amici, Barn Boutique, Hard Hat Café, and many more. We will also be raffling a fresh cut Premium Fraser Fir Christmas tree (4-8’) and a Balsam wreath donated by G.R.O.W.E.R.S Inc. Most of all, we will have live acoustic entertainment from Brian Nolan! Rain or shine, this will be a fantabulous event!

Love Yours was created to bring Matt’s vision, to help others through fitness in an inclusive environment, to reality.  Today would have been Matt’s 25th birthday and we know that if he were here with us today, his vision would be a reality by virtue of his determination, passion and kindness.  In honor of Matt’s birthday, we are having a Birthday Fundraiser to continue to raise funds for our mission and long-term goal of operating Love Yours Fitness, an inclusive fitness center.
