Cookie Contest at Fort Wayne International Airport
Since 1999, arriving passengers at Indiana’s Fort Wayne International Airport have been welcomed to town by local volunteers handing out free cookies made by a local bakery. It’s a charming tradition and sometime next week airport officials figure they’ll be giving some lucky passenger the airport’s millionth cookie – along with a heap-o-prizes.
To commemorate the event, the airport is also having a cookie contest. If you live within an hour’s drive of Fort Wayne International Airport, you’re invited to register a cookie recipe, bake two dozen cookies using your registered recipe, and then bring those cookies over to the airport for judging on December 16th. Judges will then rate those cookies on taste, appearance, simplicity and appeal and award prizes that include airline miles for airlines serving the airport (25,000 miles for 1st place) and free airport parking for a week.
Think you’ve got a winning recipe? Here’s a link for registering your recipe for the Fort Wayne International Airport’s One in a Million Cookie Contest.
Good luck!

That’s a pretty cool tradition. I do have to wonder, what is the flight that makes Ft. Wayne “International”?
