1 Dining Room instructions DURING THE WEEKEND THE TEAM THAT GOD PROVIDED FOR THIS WALK MAKE THE DECISION FOR THE WEEKEND ON WHAT COLORS TO USE AND WHAT SPECIAL TOUCHES THAT ARE PLACED IN THE DINING ROOM FOR THE WEEKEND. The dining room leader will need to plan and organize the Dining Room Agape and decorations. You will need to choose your table agape as soon as possible remember there has to be at least 48 to 50 pieces in each piece you choose (confirm the number so you will know how many to prepare for). TRY TO PICK AGAPE THAT SURROUNDS TALKS IF YOU CAN. You will also need to make sure there are bags made and ready to go to the Dining Room for agape. (this is an agape item that is signed up for but you will need to make sure someone signed up and delivered them to the walk) There are standard decorations that are included in our supplies. These include: Tablecloths need to get with past Chief for current inventory Green plants for centerpieces w/different picks that can be added to centerpieces Roosters Candles Various decorations You are to use the decorations that are supplied, but you may add to centerpieces to go with the theme if you like. If you wish to vary from the schedule or do anything different you will need to talk to the Lay Director and she/he will need to obtain approval from the Board of Directors. We try to keep all walks standard so that everyone is blessed!! Your dining room team needs to supply the napkins for the weekend. This is not very expensive, but if there is a problem with someone not able to do this get a volunteer from one of the team members not on the dining room team. The napkin schedule is as follows: Friday - Breakfast none (they will get a napkin as they go thru the line) Lunch plain Dinner plain Saturday - Breakfast soft color or floral Lunch color or floral Dinner dress napkin and is signed up for on agape list Sunday - Breakfast Colorful!!! Lunch Colorful!!!

2 Some suggestions the cheap packages of napkins you buy at the grocery store or Wal Mart work well for the plain. You can find floral or more colorful napkins at Big Lots, Paper Shack, Party Stores, or Dollar Stores. The Saturday night napkins is an agape item, but make sure someone signed up for and brought them to the walk. Sometimes the dining room team makes napkin holders for Sunday s lunch. If so, these need to be made before the walk on Thursday or at night - other Agape Team members may be able help you! For lunch on Sunday you need to have place cards or bags for names. You will put the names on at the walk. Get a volunteer for this. You also need to have a sign with the table name to stick in the centerpiece for Sunday. Talk with the LD to see if she wants anything special on the tables. You also need to discuss your plans with the agape chief. Thursday: Organize and label areas in DR agape room. Label areas as: Friday Lunch; Friday Dinner; Saturday Breakfast, etc. These should be marked off with tape and labeled. Place a placemat/agape/napkin at each spot organize any decorations for that particular meal and place in the designated area. Make sure everything is labeled and organized. This makes it easier to do during the weekend and saves a lot of time!! Put together anything that requires any assembly: put names on cards, fold napkins.... Anything that can be done ahead of time should be!!! Post Schedule where it can be seen easily by the team Tape signs to doors that say Team Servants Only Get list of pilgrims and team names and table assignments post these also Leader and 1 helper check with cook and discuss: Meal schedules Answer any questions they may have we want to follow any restrictions or requests they have!!
