Nov 15, 2010 – While children i""n San Diego may not often have the opportunity to build a snowman, this year, Flippin’ Pizza would like to give them the chance to build a “doughman”

. The neighborhood pizzeria invites families to bring the kids to visit any of its locations in Carlsbad (“Knockout”), Encinitas, La Costa or Vista, to participate in the first annual Doughman Contest. Flippin’ Pizza will provide the dough and markers and families are encouraged to get creative and bring an assortment of other ‘construction materials’ for doughman building.

The contest will be held for three consecutive Mondays, beginning November 22 and ending on December 6. Once the doughman is created, families may upload a photo of the child’s creation to the Flippin’ Pizza Facebook page where the community is then invited to vote for the 2010 Doughman of the Year. Contest voting will be open December 13-17 on Flippin’ Pizza’s Facebook page and the grand prize winner of a free family pizza party will be announced on the social network on Monday, December 20, 2010.

For full contest rules and to find a list of recommended supplies, including clothing, fabrics, jewelry and other accessories, visit Flippin’ Pizza’s Facebook page at http://www.Facebook.com/FlippinPizza.

About FLIPPIN’ PIZZA and Knockout Pizzeria:
Knockout Pizzeria’s unique pizza recipe originated in Sicily over 30 years ago. The craze over this pizza in New York made it apparent that the West Coast was missing out and thus, Knockout Pizzeria of Carlsbad was born. Flippin’ Pizza was launched in 2007 as Patrick Farley, owner of the original Knockout Pizzeria of Carlsbad, expanded his concept to more pizzerias in North San Diego County. It is the mission of Knockout Pizzeria and Flippin’ Pizza to be the neighborhood pizzerias that provide a true slice of New York to every customer who walks through their doors.
