- 2 caterers because one is providing the vegan/vegetarian options and the other is not.
- “Taste the love cooking is providing the vegetarian jambalaya, Mac and cheese, and roasted vegetables. They are not providing chicken jambalaya and that is not included in the final food total in the proposal. The second caterer, NOLA, is providing white rice, chicken tenders, and jambalaya which contains sausage.”
- Food warmers: Checked with both caterers and renting the food warmers would lead to an additional cost.
- “We only wanted food delivery, hence there's no servers. They said that renting the warmers would require them to make another trip to come get them after the event is finished. They suggested getting our own warmers to mitigate costs.”
- $39.99 Approved by Chair 2.28.25
- Photographer: no longer needed, BSA member will do it
- Liaison: Ask to reformat budget and resend for food, approved food warmers, remind to send compostable option for utensils/plates to be considered by the board
