The Saint Paul Bread Club will have a bake-off on April 17, where
members (including at-the-door members) can demonstrate their skills
at baking bread at home. (That's Saint Paul, as in St. Paul,
Minnesota.)

Membership in the club is free and open to the public. Bread bakers
with any level of experience are welcome. Membership in the club is
open to anyone interested in bread.

We will meet for the bake-off on April 17, at 3 p.m. at the St. Agnes
Baking Co., 644 Olive St. in downtown Saint Paul. Entries for the
bake-off must be present by 3:30 p.m. There are no entry fees.

Judging of entries will be done by a panel of judges selected by
Klecko. Breads will be judged on taste, texture, and appearance.

There will be seven bread categories, with 1st, 2nd, and 3rd prizes in
each. There will also be a grand prize for the best bread in any
category. Entries by children will be in separate, but parallel
categories.

Categories: French, Italian, Multigrain/Whole Wheat, Rye, Sourdough,
Sweet Dough, and Other.

Saint Paul Bread Club: Chair and Founder, Dan "Klecko" McGleno;
