Additionally, if you purchase something on behalf of the Foundation and need to be reimbursed, there is a form to fill out and you will submit that along with a copy of the receipt to Rick Archer and he will issue you a check. You can mail or email him the paperwork once completed. Both of these forms are available for pick from the Sgt. at Arms and we are working on making them available on our website as well. 
 

Thank you to those that are now sitting "THE Best Table!!!" You guys are THE best!! "Let him that would move the world, first move himself." - Socrates (Shameless, I know. )

Jeff Wagner was our announcer, so you know what that means!. Apparently he us "softballs" and asked some easy Ohio Trivia. I am not sure that is true no matter how much he wants to believe that, but we did learn some new things about our great State! The lawyers table had the winning ticket, again , but the pot continues to grow as the Joker was not pulled again . 

 

Another wonderful week of speakers!! Dick Hall introduced, Mark Trene, Career Tech Director at Stow High School. He shared with us some information about the culinary institute. and introduced Zach, a 3rd year student in the culinary program. There are not many students that get the opportunity to start their Sophomore year in Career Tech, but Zach had the grades and determination. His ultimate goal is to own a bakery. He shared his experiences with the culinary program and then introduced Chef G, who runs the program.

 

Chef G, told us what it takes to be successful in the program and what they teach the kids beyond just the culinary aspects. The students need to have a good work ethic and the ability to multitask. They teach them about food safety, commercial food service equipment, and customer service. They like to work with local restaurants to give them additional experience and this year, they are working with The Tavern of Stow. They are always looking for new partners. Maybe think about how you can add value as a club member!!

 

Did you know that the High School has it's own restaurant to highlight the skills of the students and help teach them?! It's called Joshua's and they are open Thursday's and Friday's from 10:45 AM - 1:00 PM. If you would like to get on their mailing list to see menus and such call 330-689-5213. You can also follow them on Facebook at Joshua's @CulinaryArtsStow. Thank you sharing with us!!!
