2019 Winners

Ridley Funeral Home in support of Franklin Horner Community Centre

Ridley partnered with Franklin Horner Chef's with a Classic Grilled Cheese Sandwich featuring Whipped Maple Butter & Bacon. It was a big hit with vistors and the Judges.  Most were surprised that a Funeral Home won, but this dedicated team made an excellent sandwich and donated their profits and prize money to the community centre.
