Coffee / Tea Break Instructions
- All members will be expected to run the Club tea service at the meeting break
- A rota will be established showing the members and dates they will be running the service. This should not entail more than two duties per season. Three members will make up a rota.
- The rota will be emailed to all members before the season starts and will be published in the member’s area of the web site. **The version emailed to members will not include contact details. These will be available on the version on the web site in the member’s area in early September. This is accessed using the member’s password.
- If a member is not able to attend on the date allocated, they should inform the other members on the rota and ask another member to cover for them. This can be done by referencing the version on the website.
- The Committee members will ensure all consumables are available. This includes Tea, coffee, sugar, milk, biscuits and cups.
- Members should arrive at the CE centre at 7pm to set up the tea service. The key to the club ‘darkroom’ is in the janitor’s room on the LHS at the top of the stairs. The key is labelled and is hung on the hooks on the RHS wall.
- Tables will need to be set up for the service. These are usually available in the meeting rooms or in the corridor outside.
- The urn is in the darkroom and should be filled from the tap there. Note; It is heavy once filled.
- The rest of the consumables are in the cupboard on the left corner.
- The urn is thermostatically controlled and can be left on until the tea break. Everything else should be set up ready for the break before the meeting starts.
- Once the break is over everything should be tidied away.
