The Food Services group at Forbes Hall supports both TICA and other island groups’ initiatives at the hall. This could be anything from a simple coffee and cookies service to dinner events.

We are looking for volunteers who work well with others in a busy environment with the focus of preparing and serving beverages and foods.

We are happy to train on-the-job for volunteers to do any of the following:

• Beverage Service: making of coffee and teas, set up of various beverages and services. Does not include alcohol sales or service.

• Food Preparation: the breaking down of raw ingredients and following recipes under the guidance of the lead.

• Food and Beverage Service and Clearing: efficient table service, buffet replenishing, clearing of dishes and readying for next course. Clearing at end of service, readying for dishwashing.

• Room Set Up: set up/take down of chairs and tables, and the setting of tables.

• BBQing: grilling, prep and cleaning of BBQ. This is only a few times a year, but an essential part of what we provide.

• Dishwashing: working as part of an organized dishwashing stream.

• Sales: taking/calling orders, dealing with cash, e-transfers.

This call out is for stand-alone events, although Soup’s On is usually a good partner when it comes to who knows how to do what. We are building a list of people who will be willing to help us when they’re available.

Please contact me directly if you want to join us, let’s talk!
