A group of Winter Texans staying at VIP La Feria West were treated to cream pies.

But instead of sitting down to enjoy the goodies, they got the fluffy desserts in a different way.

The residents actually sat on a chair as other winter visitors placed the pies in their faces.

They also provided the pies as part of a fundraising event in which proceeds went to first responders.

Rene McElderry, a park resident, said a lot of pies went flying.

“One of them went for $50,” she said about a donation. “We had quite a few people showing up.”

McElderry said it was a nice event for a worthy cause.

The fundraising netted $1,825.75 it was the second such event in as many years.

Linda Hughes was the fundraiser organizer.
