Main Program Dates: July 1-23, 2024. We’d prefer to have the cook arrive at least 2-3 days early to orient, shop, and prepare.
Prepare menu and meals for 45 participants and staff
- Land days - breakfast, lunch, dinner all at church
  - We usually have 1-2 BBQ days at a local park
- Ocean/hike days - breakfast & prep to-go lunch materials (participants make their own sandwiches), dinner at church
- Tournament days - to-go breakfast & lunch for 5am departure, dinner at church
- Prep times - We’ve found historically that cooks work the following hours:
  - Breakfast - 6am prep for breakfast at 7. During breakfast, layout/prep lunch making materials if lunch is to-go
  - Lunch (if on land) - 10:30am-12pm for lunch at 12pm
