June 30th Pot Luck Event

Note: The following is not intended as an offer to speak at the meeting. It is intended to get members to participate and bring food and supplies to the event.


Imagine, if you will, an evening filled with fun, surprises, good food, and drink, as diverse as the members of our club.

Now imagine your role in making this happen.

Fellow Toastmasters,

I'm John Schneyer, your Event Master for our June 30th Pot Luck Night. Please put on your thinking hats and come up with something you would be proud to bring to our club. Switch roles and put on your chef hats (or shopping hats as the case may be) and show us what you can do. Don't hold back or get stage freight ( 3 deep breaths, hold, and slowly release and you'll be fine).

Treat this like your Ice Breaker and you'll be fine.

Executive Summary:

For this project, you will introduce your food choices to your fellow club members and give them some insights into your skills and background. Practice preparing and eating your food and strive to make it tasty and safe. You may use recipes during your preparation and napkins if you wish during your eating. Read the entire recipe before preparing any food.

Objectives:
  • To begin preparing food for an audience
  • To discover food preparation skills you already have and skills that need some attention
  • To begin eating before an audience
  • To discover eating skills you already have and skills that need some attention
Time: 60-90 minutes


We are looking for:

Appetizers
Salads
Desserts
Beverages (soda, water, iced tea, cider)
Ice
Set up (napkins, plates, cups, table cloth, utensils)
Clean up (baggies, paper towels, sponges, small bottle of all purpose cleaner)

My suggestion is to let us all know what you will be bringing by commenting to this post.
You should also send an e-mail to John.Schneyer@BocaConsultants.com letting me know so I can track everything.
