The process

We need a level, firm place to park the van, close to where people will eat, and we agree exactly where before the day. After-work summer events in Oakthorpe Park have daylight until about 9:20pm in late June and 7:05pm in late September; for winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, we need lighting.

  1. Send us the date, site, headcount and break times.
  2. We check the site and send a price and any details facilities need.
  3. We arrange the van’s spot and arrival with the site.
  4. We cook to order for each group as they come out.
  5. We clear up and leave the site as we found it.

Before we arrive

  • Think about a gazebo by the van in case of rain
  • Get permission for the van from the venue
  • Make sure the van can get in
