Food+&+Beverage

 The following ideas are my suggestions for food and beverage for the Dr. Barbara Gross event I would like to suggest advertising the event as starting at 8:15 am, even though Dr. Gross will not begin until 8:30 am. If we advertise it at 8:30 am, we will still have the late people coming in at 8:45 am. That way, if they think it starts at 8:15 am, and come in "late" at 8:30 am, they will BE ON TIME!

Crescent style round tables of five with linens on the tables, and pitchers of ice water Standing podium for speaker Small table next to the podium for speakers notes, pitcher of ice water, and glass Registration table is not necessary as the hostess stand in the Grotto can be used

__8:15 am - Continental Breakfast - 50 people - Grotto Dining Room__: - Banana bread - Assorted muffins - Fruit tray - Assorted juices - Pitchers of ice water ON the tables - Coffee (regular and decaffeinated) - Hot tea - @ $129.75 total

8:30 am - 10:30 am - First session - **TITLE TO BE DETERMINED**

Refresh of the room at 10:30 am - straighten the tables up, as people will be leaving, staying, and others just joining Barbara does not want to be interrupted by the serving of lunch, so I suggested that we have box lunches on the tables. If the faculty want to eat at 11:00 am when the second session starts, they can do so. If they want to wait until 11:45 am, that's fine, too.

Refresh the room with replenishing the ice water pitchers and glasses

__11:00 am - 1:00 pm - Second session - **TITLE TO BE DETERMINED**__ - Assorted box lunches - one at each place setting - LABELED - to include assortment of ham, turkey, and veggie subs - All box lunches will also include chips, granola bar, an apple, and canned soda or bottled water - @ $5.75 per person

We do need to adjourn as close to 1:00 pm as possible, because there is an event in the Grotto on Friday evening. They said 1:15 pm at the latest.


 * Will need to release Bruce - stage of PAC (we are wait-listed)
