Special thanks to Debra Baker (nee Barbara) & Dale Barbara, guest speakers, whose parents were part of the founding roots of our agency. Thank you to employee, Donna Ouimet, who did an amazing job creating all the picture displays throughout our Community Network Center and a big thumbs up to Daniel Ladouceur and Julie Bourgon for the awesome Tomorrow’s Dream presentation.

🎸🤘 What an incredible night of rock and roll for Simone! 🤘🎸

On September 12th, the Brockville Arts Centre came alive as *Destroyer Canada* brought the legendary music and energy of KISS to the stage! 🎶

From the moment the band appeared in full costume and makeup, Simone was transported back to the glory days of classic rock. She sang along to hit after hit, including “Rock and Roll All Nite,” creating an unforgettable evening filled with excitement, nostalgia, and great memories! ❤️🎤

It was a fantastic night of music, fun, and celebration—and a wonderful reminder that the spirit of KISS is still alive and well! 🤘🔥

🎸🤘 Quelle soirée incroyable de rock and roll pour Simone! 🤘🎸

Le 12 septembre, le Centre des arts de Brockville s’est transformé en véritable scène de rock alors que *Destroyer Canada* a fait revivre la musique légendaire et l’énergie de KISS! 🎶

Dès que le groupe est apparu sur scène, vêtu de ses costumes et de son maquillage emblématiques, Simone a été transportée à l’époque légendaire du rock classique. Elle a chanté au rythme de plusieurs grands succès, dont « Rock and Roll All Nite », créant une soirée inoubliable remplie d’excitation, de nostalgie et de beaux souvenirs! ❤️🎤

Une merveilleuse soirée de musique, de plaisir et de célébration qui nous a rappelé que l’esprit de KISS est toujours bien vivant! 🤘🔥

The ovens have cooled, the crumbs have settled, the milk has been poured… and the judges have spoken! 🍪🥛

Claudette, Henry and Sophie (our surprise guest judge and quick step-in for Jim) gathered to tackle the very difficult job of sampling this month’s entries.

Their mission? Pick a winner.

Their problem? Everything was delicious!

It was a tough job, but someone had to do it. 😉

🍪 Glazed and Confused

We kicked things off with Glazed and Confused, who brought us a delicious molasses cookie.

This recipe has been in Krista’s family for many years — and we’re beginning to wonder if we were given access to a top-secret family recipe!

The team presented their cookies with a glass of milk, proving once again that some things in life are simply meant to go together.
Cookie + milk = a winning combination!

🍪 The Oven Queens

Next into the Bake Off arena was The Oven Queens, who presented a cookie recipe from Nina’s childhood.

The presentation was lovely, the cookies were delicious, and the judges clearly approved. Another childhood favourite made its way to the judging table — and into the judges' stomachs!

🍪 Anik la clique des gourmands

Next up was Anik la clique des gourmands, who brought a recipe from Kaitlyn’s early days at the farm.
And this one came with a story!

It was Grandma’s recipe, complete with the secret ingredient — shortening!

If you knew Kaitlyn’s grandma (my aunt), you’ll know she was a fabulous baker. So, expectations were high!

The cookies were beautifully presented and were definitely enjoyed by our panel of judges.

🍪 Cookie Cutters

And finally, we had Cookie Cutters!

They brought a peanut butter cookie recipe that Peter remembered having as a child.

But why stop at one cookie when you can create three?!

Cookie Cutters used the same delicious peanut butter base to create:
🥜 Plain peanut butter cookies
🍓 Thumbprint cookies with jam
🥜🍪 Peanut butter sandwich cookies

Now that's what we call covering all the bases!

🧑‍⚖️ The Judges Deliberate…

The judges tasted.

The judges discussed.

The judges tasted some more.

And, according to the panel:

“All were really good. It was a close race, and it was hard to pick just one. We loved hearing the stories behind each presentation, and they were all childhood favourites.”

Clearly, being a Bake Off judge is not an easy job!

But a decision had to be made…

🥁🥁🥁 DRUM ROLL PLEASE! 🥁🥁🥁

🏆 THE RESULTS ARE IN!

🥇 FIRST PLACE – COOKIE CUTTERS
A triple-cookie strategy pays off!

🥈 SECOND PLACE – GLAZED AND CONFUSED
Molasses + milk = a very strong showing!

🥉 THIRD PLACE – ANIK LA CLIQUE DES GOURMANDS
Grandma’s recipe continues to make an impression!

🏅 FOURTH PLACE – THE OVEN QUEENS
A delicious childhood classic earns its place in the competition!

🎉 Congratulations to Everyone!

A huge thank you to all of our teams for participating. Every entry brought something special to the table — delicious baking, great stories and, most importantly, a lot of team spirit.

The judges may have chosen their winners, but everyone gets to call themselves a Bake Off champion for surviving the cookie round! 😉

Now the pressure is on…

🧁 OCTOBER'S CHALLENGE:
CUPCAKES & DECORATED TREATS!

Let the creativity begin. Let the icing flow. And may the best baker win!

We have the Glazed and Confused, the Oven Queens, Cookie Cutters and the Anik la clique des gourmands.

Over the next four months, our teams will go head-to-head in a series of delicious baking challenges—with a panel of judges deciding who rises to the top! 🏆

Four challenges. One champion. Lots of delicious competition!

Nous avons les Glazed and Confused, les Oven Queens, les Cookie Cutters et les Anik la clique des gourmands.

Au cours des quatre prochains mois, nos équipes s'affronteront dans une série de délicieux défis de boulangerie—avec un jury qui décidera qui montera au sommet! 🏆
