We are looking for volunteers to help with event support!
We will need some enthusiastic volunteers to assist us on the day of our Y.E.S. Chef! Culinary Competition.
The first shift will be half set up and half event coordination. Possible responsibilities could include directing guests to the event, light clean up, trash removal, or handing out of materials. The later time frame is half these same activities and tear down and clean up.
In exchange for volunteering, you will be given a $10 entrance ticket that allows you to sample four food items and gives you one bottle of water. At the event, you can purchase additional tokens to sample more food items for $3 a token. Please sign-up to volunteer here.

Judging: There are two types of judging that will occur at this event. We will have a panel of professionals from the restaurant community judging the dishes. The youth attending the event will also have the opportunity to judge the food items made by their peers. When the youth arrive at the event, they will be given a ballot to complete. At the end of the event, the ballots will be tallied. The winning restaurant will receive a trophy that will be housed at their location for one year. The winning students will receive a chef jacket.
Door Prizes: The Joseph Initiative will be raffling off various prizes throughout the day. You do not need to be present to win a prize. Click here or email anne@josephcommunitycenter.org to donate a door prize.
