Pie price officially a world record!

Linda and Jerry Mumma shelled out the cash that put
Rich Hill in the record books- paying $3,100.00 for
a pie

After nearly 11 weeks of anxiously waiting, it is NOW “official” … Rich Hill, Missouri, has put their name in the GUINNESS WORLD RECORD list!

Notification officially came today from the Guinness World Records home office in London that the July 6th Pie Contest and Auction, where a pie baked by Jara Mumma, and purchased by her grandparents Jerry and Linda Mumma for $3,100.00, is now a confirmed WORLD RECORD. The Pie Contest and Auction has become an annual event and important fund raiser for the “Famous for the Fourth” Celebration for which that community is widely known. Each year the auction has grown more critical to the success of helping foot the enormous bill for conducting the 4-day Fourth of July celebration, which is complete with carnival, parade, fireworks, and BIG name entertainment such as this year’s FREE concert by the nationally known group, The Kentucky Headhunters!

A formal presentation ceremony is being planned for a future date.
