The Baltic Lutheran Bake Sale will be help Saturday, August 8th from 9am-12pm at the Baltic American Legion. This sale never dissapoints!

America's 250th Trivia: Bake sales began as powerfuk tools for political resistance. In the early 1900s, Suffragettes utilized bake sales to raise money for voting rights. They set out to prove to the public that they were capable, engaged citizens. In the Civil Righte Era, activists used baking and selling as a form of financial resistance. Notably, during boycotts, hero Georgia Gilmore organized a secret baking club that sold goods to fund transportation for protesters fighting for equal rights.

However, it was rediscovered, it's patent was picked up, and it was pitched to SharkTank under the new name Spikeball. The media gave it the notoriety it needed to take off this time.

America's 250th Trivia: In the 18th century, outdoor music primarily consisted of military drummers and fifers signaling troops and keeping cadence on the march. By the 19th and early 20th centuries, public parks became the center of American leisure. Brass and marching bands performed in outdoor bandstands, providing free, accessible civic entertainment.
