Annual Toy drive

"Associations are more about what you can offer than what you can get. It’s hard to measure the value of camaraderie and support, of networking and associating with others in the same field. But a lot of chefs work in one place, and don’t have the luxury of getting out and around. Belonging to the CCFCC is a way to “get around” by utilizing . . . and contacting fellow members. The same way that we practice our cooking every day to stay in top form, to learn, to improve, we have to practice being contributing members to our association—that’s the only way we can make it work for us."
