The Front of House team has officially kicked into high gear. For the last 2 months we have been working to acquire the front of house volunteers that bring you your food, set it in front of you, pour your wine, and take your food away to get you ready for your next course. As you can imagine with 256 guests, it requires a lot of help, we have almost 100 volunteers working just in the dining room during the event. Our training sessions for the lovely volunteers were last week, it was great to meet all of them, since many of them are freshman and sophomore’s its even cooler to see who could be a director or supervisor in future years. In past years, we had a lot higher volunteer to guest ratio, but with the addition of so many tables this year, we decided to work for efficacy and work in teams. Each table will share a server, wine pourer, food runner, and busser with another table all working together to hopefully create a more efficient and less cluttered dining room. Because I am crazy, the front of house volunteers have a lot of color coded diagrams and pretty stickers to identify themselves to help cut the confusion. Unfortunately, it is less than a week to the event and I have more diagrams to make and emails to send so I must sign off. Can’t wait!
