-Cookbook update. We are placing an initial order of 500. We have a lot of recipes that are amazing.

The art teachers from CHS are excited about the art being displayed in the cookbook. They have not pre-ordered so they would like for us to have a lot of extras for this purpose.

The winning artwork for each cookbook section was displayed at the booster meeting. We intend to put the “honorable mentions” on the website to show recognition of submissions.

We want to give recognition in the cookbook to the Art Teachers (Monica LaPier and Arlene Valdez) who assigned the art project to their students. We are considering making a certificate of recognition for all students who submitted artwork.

Nancy Lesky volunteered to notify those offering internship opportunities to our students about the advertising opportunity in the cookbook.
