On Being a Food Family

Every family takes a turn providing food for rowers and HTCC supporters at regattas. Fortunately, it is not a solo duty, but is shared with others. Generally at any one regatta, three families work together to provide food and perform other necessary tasks. Being a 'Food Family'  involves more than cooking.  You are also responsible for setting up/taking down the tent(s) and tables, handing sponsorship banner and HTCC flag; monitoring the food throughout the event; emptying trash and generally keeping the food area neat. The tent is to be ready and food available two hours before the first race (but this can vary).

New families are always paired with veterans who have set up many a tent and cooked many mac & cheese casseroles. The 2017 Spring Season assignments are below.

We have also provided some great tips & information to help you prepare enough food for a day on the river.  Also check out these videos on how to set up the food tents and the HTCC flag banner.
