The bake sale date and event details will be announced once finalized. Prior baking experience is not necessary—all ability levels are welcome! Baking is staffed at approximately a 1:4–5 ratio, with one FACT staff member supporting four to five participants.

FACT staff will provide appropriate support and supervision based on individual participant needs.
