Canteen notes
Greetings:
I’d like to provide you the status of the canteen for the next several weeks. As you all know, we rely heavily on Brenda to volunteer as a bartender. She will be unavailable for the next three weeks. I request that you members out there who have current TIPS training come out and volunteer to serve as bartenders. For those of you who do not have TIPS training, how about you come out and cook on either Tuesday or Friday to help support the post. We are continuing to sell our overstock of various food and drink items. I invite everybody to come out and take advantage of the specials at the canteen. If you're able to volunteer please email me at ( ) or ()
Chris Ryan
Canteen Manager
