Re: Tree Chipping Food Service - Comments from Doug Grainger
Hi Andrea:
No real need to rewrite the report as all messages sent to treechip@lists.cleannorth.org get archived. That's what I did when I sent you Doug's report (and this one).
So in future please include treechip@lists.cleannorth.org in the distribution for any e-mail containing information relevant to the project. That way it goes to everyone on the committee and it gets recorded in an electronic archive.
Next year you and I should both make contact with the Scouts (actually they were Venturers this year). Assuming it's Doug Grainger again it would be simple enough to cc one another on e-mail.
As far as I know vinegar is not a disinfectant. You might check on non-chlorine bleach as an alternative.
As far as hot chocolate goes, Doug made a specific suggestion about chocolate syrup and can provide info on suppliers (I had forgotten that Nestle products are evil).
Who writes the thank you notes is a good question. As far as I know Clean North has not done so in the past (apart from the thank you ad in the Sault Star). We probably should be paying more attention to this. So please go ahead and send notes to all your food donation people. It seems like the right thing to do.
Don

>Sorry Don. didn't realize there would be a report from the Boy Scouts. I can rewrite the report to include it so that there is only one report to search for next year.
>Would it be easier if the person in charge of food makes the contact with the Boy Scouts?
>Can vinegar be used instead of bleach as a disinfectant? There is probably some AHU stipulation that bleach be used?
>I'll look for some non-Nestle hot chocolate syrup product for next year.
>Who writes the thank you notes? Would you like me to write the ones for the food donations?

> Here are a few comments on the Food Services from my point of view:
>
> * Baking was great ... seemed to be lots with no shortages.
> * Chili arriving warmed up is good ... most went I don't think there would have
> been more than a bowl or two left.
> * The large Dutch oven worked well to get it up to serving Temp. and the Crockpot as a server.
> * More buns than was needed
> * Small tub of margarine would be plenty ... use marg. over butter as butter stay too hard in cold Wx.
> * Hot Chocolate was good for youth ... suggest the canned carnation. The best is the liquid syrup
> purchase at Nat. Groc. we have an Account through Scouts and can pick some up next year if you wish.
> * Drink Crystals ... did not make any but depends on weather .Had it been a warmer day they may prefer it.
> * Made 1 pot of tea and was appreciated by a few of the volunteers.
> * Agree sugar better than sugar cubes
> * We used the 21st. Eastside 3 burner Propane Stove and a large burner to heat water ... Its hard on propane but provides lots of hot water that's needed to keep pace with dishes.
> * Estimate we used about 10 # (1/2 of our bottle) Likely about $8.00 worth of Propane.
> * Dishes .... needed fair number of towels as they freeze up when damp but there we lots available.
> Should have a small container of non scented bleach for rinse water.
> * Generator worked well and no problems with keeping Crock Pot warm and coffee pots.
> * Wayne provide gas for generator ... I don't think it took all that much.
> * Can't think of any thing further at this time.

> Thanks Doug
