2008 Variable Menu Available at Gardner Dam

The variable menu just got easier and more flexible. If you would like to stick to a basic menu at no extra charge, just select everything in the first column. If you would like more variety in your meals, shop around. Meals will be based on a point value, with an additional cost per person being added if the troop goes beyond the standard menu. If your selected menu adds points, everyone, including leaders, will be charged an additional fee according to the number of points above the standard of 0.

FOOD ALLERGIES AND SPECIAL DIETARY NEEDS SHOULD BE CLEARLY NOTED AND LISTED ON MEDICAL FORMS

Those with food allergies should consider bringing acceptable food to camp to satisfy their special dietary requirements. Due to supplier substitutions and limited product availability, the Bay Lakes Council can not guarantee food acceptable for all special dietary needs. The camp will try to accommodate based on their availability of food products. Storage of special dietary foods can be arranged by contacting the Business Manager in advance of arrival.
