🎉 Kick Off 2025 with an Exciting Cafeteria Contest! 🍽️
Do you know how many people we serve in the cafeteria every day? Here’s a fun challenge to start the new year:
How long will it take to serve 2,025 student lunches?
Starting Monday, January 6, 2025, we’ll be counting every student lunch served. The lucky student who becomes the 2,025th lunch eater will win a gift certificate to a local merchant! 🏆
💡 Thanks to technology, we’ll be tracking the exact order of all students (staff lunches won’t be included).
But wait—there’s something for staff, too! 🍴
Staff members can participate in a separate challenge by guessing the date we’ll serve the 2,025th student lunch. The closest guess wins a free lunch from the cafeteria!
📅 How to Participate:
Students: No need to do anything—just come in, grab lunch, and cross your fingers that you’re #2,025!
Staff: Stop by the cafeteria and choose your guess for when the milestone lunch will happen.
Let’s make this a fun and delicious start to the new year—good luck to everyone!
