Mid MO PrideFest 2022 was the best! So happy to be a part of such a wonderful group of people. They truly made the weekend even better than imagined. Sorry if this is a long post… 😁
HUGE shoutout to a couple of people.
Zed James - appreciate you SOOO much! If it wasn’t for your help preparing, packaging/labeling and keeping me focused this would have been a disaster. You’re ideas and input are always helpful and you’re always willing to jump in and help whenever needed. You’re a big part of Bakes You Knead coming to life and will never be able to thank you enough!
Steven DeVore - Thank you for inviting us to join the Mid MO PrideFest team. Without you Bakes You Knead wouldn’t have many of the opportunities we have now. You’re such a great person, kind soul and Columbia is very lucky to have you in their community to help spread the love of Pride! Can’t thank you enough for all you do and allowing Bakes You Knead to grow. You’re not only helping make Columbia a better place but the world as well!
Janet M Davis - PrideFest is very lucky to have you. Since the first day we met you’ve been so kind, helpful and welcoming! You’re like a mom when we get to come to Columbia for events and can’t thank you enough for that! You spread so much love and joy when you’re around. The Columbia community wouldn’t be the same without you. Thank you for believing in Bakes You Knead, giving us a chance and making us a part of the PrideFest family. We can’t thank you enough and can’t wait until next time! PS- we need to get a picture or two together 😁
Elizabeth Loud-Lane - You’ve been a blessing for Bakes You Knead! You go out of your way to help with anything and it really means a lot to us! Thank you for running our booth this weekend, helping with PrideFest stuff and just being a wonderful person all around. You deserve all the best things and can’t thank you enough for being apart of our journey at Bakes You Knead. We’d definitely be lost without you!
Mandy Henerfauth - It was a pleasure getting to meet you and so glad you were able to join this weekend. You’re so sweet, helpful, and hope you had a great time! I appreciate you and hope you will join us at future events! Thanks for being so awesome!
Overall this was such an amazing weekend and turned out soooo much better than expected! Got to met some amazing people, new connections and so much more! Can’t wait for next year!
