STUDENT CHEF SERIES June 26 June 30, 2017
Welcome back to the William J. Clinton Presidential Center s Culinary Camp! Throughout this week, campers will build on the basic skills they learned in year one of Culinary Camp. They will receive hands-on training to become proficient in stocks and skills, learn about locally-grown food, and continue to prepare healthy meals and snacks. To wrap up the camp experience, student chefs will showcase their new cooking skills during a special reception. At the reception, campers will put their two years of culinary education on display by rolling sushi and at action stations. Due to limited space, up to two parents or guests of the camper s choice, are invited to attend. Your child s first day is Monday, June 26, 2017. Please print and sign the waivers found on the last two pages of this document and send them with your child on the first day. These waivers are required for your child to participate in Culinary Camp. Each day, your child should wear closed-toe shoes and bring their knife roll, cutting board, and chef s jacket. Culinary Camp is held on the campus of the William J. Clinton Presidential Center. You may drop off your camper daily at 8:30 a.m. and pick them up at 4:00 p.m. in Celebration Circle in front of the Clinton Presidential Library.
