Every successful club needs to be sure that its food and beverage service is top notch, and nothing is more important to that success than to have a staff prepared to deliver the best possible member service. This is especially true at large events where the club is on display to large numbers of members and guests, including many first-time visitors—all of whom should be considered potential members.

RCS has perfected food and beverage service training with its nationally renowned Food and Beverage Boot Camp™ sessions—a day of intensive (but fun)! training that enhances customer happiness, employee satisfaction, and your bottom line.

This special version of this signature program focuses specifically on how to prepare, plan, and provide top-notch service at events like weddings, anniversary parties, bar and bat mitzvahs, baptisms, graduations, proms, club meetings, holiday parties, cocktail receptions, and golf tournaments.

Trainers will help staff understand the different types of events, the rules for menu planning, and specific set-up and service issues for each. Service standards for staffing, liquor and wine usage, and menu portions will be discussed in detail.

"On behalf of my department heads and staff I want to thank Joyce for the training she provided. The class was truly outstanding! I thought she did an excellent job and we certainly learned a lot. Not only did our food & beverage team learn how to do their jobs more effectively, they came away "energized" by Joyce's instruction."
