General Questions
How will we learn about the campaign?
There will be many opportunities to learn about the campaign including:
Cafeteria/Kitchen
Why do we need to improve the ELC kitchen/cafeteria?
The cafeteria/kitchen in the ELC was part of the original construction of the campus. In addition to being very out-of-date, both the cafeteria and kitchen are too small to meet the needs of the school and the parish. Our plans are to improve the kitchen/cafeteria such that it would support the school, formation and fish-fry meals, and the future parish hall – thus giving us more function with less cost.
Only half of the school students will fit into the cafeteria, leaving the other half to eat in the classrooms. The fish fry and other events are very cramped in the existing kitchen and the kitchen equipment is old and in need of repair/replacement. The initial plans for this would double the space for the cafeteria/kitchen and be sufficient to support both the school and the parish hall at some time in the future.
If we attain or exceed our campaign goal of $4.0 million, and after we pay off the ELC debt and build the new chapel, we will assess how much money is available to start this third priority project. To complete the cafeteria/kitchen requires a campaign achievement of at least $6.5 million. Initial thoughts would be to start with equipment upgrades that would be transferrable to the larger facility when that is built in the future. As much as we overachieve our goal, that money could be set aside for the future full kitchen/cafeteria project.
