Each month, we have taken turns and coordinated a dinner for between 40 and 80 at-risk youth in our community. This is a big accomplishment. Our dinners have ranged from barbeques and taco salads in a bag to more traditional meals like ham and roast beef. Thanks to all that participated so far this year as well as during the 2018-2019 Rotary year.
As reminder, this happens the fourth Monday of every month. This month the dinner will be on Monday March 23rd. Dinner is served at 6 until 6:30 or so. Then a quick clean up and we are usually done before 7. Set-up time varies depending on the amount of work needed to be done on site ... but typically 5:30 - 5:45.
For the month of March, we are looking for a coordinator from the Friday Club and then 4 servers (both clubs). April should be a coordinator from Sunrise Club and May Friday Club, etc...
Budget: There is a $200 budget each month ($100 per club) - this includes all food, water bottles, fruit, dessert, etc... Paper plates, napkins and cutlery are already at the centre.
Coordinator: We rotate between the clubs each month. The coordinator is responsible to decide on the meal, do the groceries/cook (or arrange for food) and communicate with the servers about what time to arrive.
Servers: Show up at the given time, help set up the food or finish prepping it, pick a 'station' for serving food and help with clean-up.
The youth at the centre will set up all the tables.
