The Guziel family, who won second place in the Mayfield Ice Cream Below Zero Hero contest over the summer, donated part of their winnings to North Fulton Community Charities last Saturday.
A sizeable donation to North Fulton Community Charities by Roswell's young Guziel sisters turned a second place win in the national Mayfield Ice Cream Company's "Below Zero Hero" milkshake invention contest into something even more wonderful than the sweet treat they created. Over the summer, Maggie Guziel, 10, and Kelsey Guziel, 9, transformed an old-fashion cookie into the just-as-tasty Whoopee Shake. The milkshake was a hit with Mayfield judges, who placed it among the top 10 recipes for voters to choose as their favorite. In the end the Guziel family's Whoopee Shake recipe came in second out of the thousands of recipes submitted, netting them $3,000 in prize money. "We feel very blessed to have had so much support from our family, …
