ATTENTION: SKIPPERS AND CREW
FOOD COLLECTION PLAN FOR RACE DAY SEPTEMBER 12,
2009
IN AN EFFORT TO FACILITATE
FOOD COLLECTION DROP OFF IN AN EXPEDITED MANNER, PLEASE BE ADVISED THAT THE
FOOD COLLECTION COMMITTEE IS REQUESTING YOUR ASSISTANCE IN DOCUMENTING YOUR
CREW’S POUNDS OF FOOD COLLECTED.
1)
TIME OF
FOOD DROP OFF WILL BE 8:00 AM to 9:30 AM SO CREW CAN MAKE TIMELY DOCK
CALLS.
2)
FOOD WILL
NOT BE ACCEPTED UNLESS A FORM IS COMPLETED AND PRESENTED TO A COMMITTEE MEMBER
WHICH INCLUDES THE POUNDS OF FOOD AND/OR
MONEY THAT EACH INDIVIDUAL IS DROPPING OFF AND THE SKIPPER OR BOAT THAT IT IS
TO BE CREDITED TO.
3)
THERE WILL
BE NO SCALES AVAILABLE THE DAY OF THE EVENT FOR WEIGHING THE FOOD. WE HAVE FOUND THAT FOOD WEIGHTS CAN BE FOUND
ON EACH FOOD ITEM AND CAN BE EASILY CALCULATED BY THE PERSON DROPPING OFF THE
FOOD. WE WILL HAVE CALCULATORS
AVAILABLE AT THE DROP OFF SITE FOR YOUR USE IF NECESSARY….OR YOU CAN BRING YOUR
OWN CALCULATOR. VOLUNTEERS ON SITE WILL
NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR TOTALING YOUR POUNDS OF FOOD.
4)
ALL FOOD
WILL BE PLACED IN A COMMON LOCATION INSTEAD OF AT AN INDIVIDUAL BOAT LOCATION
AS IN THE PAST. (THIS IS WHY THE COMPLETED FORM MUST BE RECEIVED PRIOR TO THE
FOOD BEING DROPPED OFF IN ORDER FOR EACH SKIPPER TO GET CREDIT FOR THE DONATED
POUNDS OF FOOD.)
5)
THERE WILL
BE COMMITTEE MEMBERS ON SITE TO ASSIST YOU IF NECESSARY AND TO DOCUMENT RECEIPT
OF YOUR COMPLETED FORM. ADDITIONAL
FORMS WILL BE AVAILABLE THE DAY OF THE EVENT.
6)
THE
NORTHWEST HARVEST PICK UP TRUCK HAS A SCHEDULED PICKUP TIME FOR 10:00 AM FOR
THE FINAL COLLECTION OF THE DONATED FOOD.
WHEN
SELECTING THE FOOD ITEMS TO DONATE, PLEASE REMEMBER THAT INDIVIDUALS AND
FAMILIES ARE ABLE TO PICK UP A WEEKS SUPPLY OF GROCERIES FROM THE FOOD
BANK. PLEASE CONSIDER DONATIONS THAT
MAY INCLUDE BABY FOOD AND FORMULA.
THANK YOU IN ADVANCE FOR YOUR DONATIONS AND
YOUR ASSISTANCE ON RACE DAY.
