Get Baked 5! - Hevy's Gingerbread Van Jam
About
It's an annual tradition now! Beef Friday kicks off Get Baked 5, our community contest for gingerbread van builders. Ya'll build sweet little rigs, everyone votes on their favorites, we give out a bunch of prizes. It's a ton of fun, worth it for the sugar high alone.
Rules
Make a sweet van. Ideally gingerbread but were not too picky.

Send us a bunch of pics, good pictures get votes! We wanna see all sides of that lil rig, and anything special ya did to decorate it.
Email your pictures to sweetvan@hevyhauling.com by midnight on December 31st to be counted!
Picture Tips: Good pictures get votes! Make sure you have good lighting and your photo is in focus. It doesn't hurt to have a backdrop (sheet/wrapping paper/poster board for example), to really make sure your sweet rig is the highlight of the photo. Taking square photos will also make sure nothing gets cut off when we crop it for the site.
Awards
Along with a Peoples Champ crowned by popular vote, we'll also give awards for Hevy's Choice and a bunch of other made-up categories. The more sweet vans that enter, the more prizes we'll have for ya! There's definitely enough goodies to go around.
