About Those Cookies...
The legendary "Biker Cookies" have become an iconic treat at the Paw Paw Vineyard Classic. Just ask any rider - these cookies are the ultimate go-to!

With college interns now managing the event, we've decided to entrust the cookie "integrity" to the experts at LaCantina. We can't wait to sink our teeth into them on September 8, we're sur you'll be thrilled that they're handling the baking, not us!
