Thursday will be a Taco/Burrito Bar and Friday, a brunch with bagel sandwiches and salads. Both will be buffet-style so that staff can pop in to serve themselves during a break in conferences.  Please consider signing up below to either supplement a meal, volunteer your time, or contribute money towards a catering order.  THANK YOU FOR YOUR GENEROSITY!
