Mike, I have been in the high-end culinary world for 30 years and completely disagree with your feedback. We can serve juicy chicken. Remember you get what you pay. When you paid $35 only 25% are the cost of food , siu when you have $8.50 to buy product don’t expect to buy high end products.

NO! I respectfully disagree. I have been to a least 20+ "Banquets" with various organizations. At each and every one of them had cold dry chicken breast and another dry entree. I say let's go to a restaurant, pay for our own food and get what we like. The awards are an honor but not a coronation. If I have offended anyone I am sorry, but I had to offer my opinion.

The lack of enthusiasm from attendees might stem from reasons beyond those who are either out of town or unable to drive. BVARC is transitioning to prioritize catering for events, consistently encountering concerns related to the quality of food, particularly during meetings or special occasions. Labeling an event as an "Annual Banquet" should inherently hold a sense of uniqueness and significance. If cost is a primary consideration, it is suggested to organize informal gatherings for cost-effective dining experiences with friends at the local cafeteria. Given the substantial financial investments made in Ham Radio equipment, it's perplexing to fret over a mere $35 annual expenditure for special events. <image001.png> K5BOU-PhilippeBoucaumont Houston|Texas|USA| https://mccrarymeadowsweather.com/ <image002.png> <image003.png> <image004.png> #77940 From: BVARC <bvarc-boun...@bvarc.org <mailto:bvarc-boun...@bvarc.org> > On Behalf Of Chuck via BVARC Sent: Thursday, January 11, 2024 9:03 AM To: BRAZOS VALLEY AMATEUR RADIO CLUB <bvarc@bvarc.org <mailto:bvarc@bvarc.org> > Cc: Chuck <toolou...@gmail.com <mailto:toolou...@gmail.com> > Subject: Re: [BVARC] banquet overpriced?
