GE Aviation-Rutland’s pie eating contest nets $2,100 for Imagination Library

GE Aviation’s pie eating contest event to raise money to benefit the Imagination Library at Rutland Free Library was messy but a very sweet success. The GE Employees Community Concerns fund donated $2,100 to support this literacy-based non-profit organization founded by Dolly Parton which gives free books to children under 5 who reside in Rutland City, Rutland Town, Mendon, Ira, and Tinmouth. GE employees donated money towards nominating an employee to participate in the pie eating competition, with participants from Plant 1 and 2. The winner from Plant 2 was Daniel Corey.
