Alumni Club Picnic

The Kitchen of Champions and Champion Workforce staff teamed up to host an Alumni Club event for alumni and current students of both programs. The picnic was held at Mosswood Park on May 7th. Despite the wind, we had a good turn-out of students, past students, and their families. Everyone enjoyed pizza, watermelon, and some football and frisbee. We had enough prizes during our raffle that no one went home empty handed.

Livermore Food and Wine Festival

The Kitchen of Champions team spent the weekend of April 30th at the Livermore Food and Wine Fest cooking up brisket sliders and coleslaw for the public. We brought the SVdP food trailer down for a weekend of good food and informing the public about our program. The current Kitchen of Champions trainees got a chance to try their hand at working in a mobile kitchen. The customers loved the sliders and the students!

The event was a great way to raise awareness for Kitchen of Champions, and the students were able to practically apply their culinary knowledge they've learned in the program thus far. Win-win!
