The festival where turning the phrase "Use your noodle" upside down into a celebration of all things great about noodles...and brains. Proceeds from this event will go towards the OTFF Smart Noodle Scholarship Award.
Show us your best editable noodle creation in one of the three main categories. Our judges will select the best based on taste, presentation, and use of noodle. Event attendees can pay $3 for a tasting wristband to help vote on people's choice, too. Cooking Team may offer full servings for $5 paid directly at the competitor's station.

The Importance of Education
The owners of Old Town Family Fun are extremely passionate about education, furthering your skills, and mixing in a bit of silly along the way. We also feel like teens need a safe outlet for fun and offer that through our monthly teen nights. Put the two together and naturally a scholarship seemed fitting.
The Smart Noodle Name
First of all, let's tie the award to our Noodle Fest theming where a significant portion of the funding comes from. The attendees at Teen Nights have so many smart attributes but also know how to let loose and have a silly good time. The word, noodle, implies the pasta reference but also the brain/head and can reference a simpleton. We'd like to take any negativity out of it and just make it a pretty smart and simple way to win this scholarship award: attend an OTFF Teen Night, our monthly teen events in a safe environment filled will fun activities and food.
What can funds be used for?
The student winning our Scholarship Award can use the funds for any secondary educational experience such as university, vocational/trades education, etc. OR to be reimbursed for expenses incurred through an apprenticeship or other non-traditional career path expense.
