Prime Timers’ Night at TBE Table (In Person)

Join us for a fun and meaningful evening at TBE in the kitchen. We encourage first timers to try TBE Table and experience the joy of helping food-insecure people as well as convening with fellow TBE members.

Scooping only—no cutting, no cooking. Pamela Rosin, our session leader, will explain what to do and guide you through the process. Packing is very straightforward.

The packing shift lasts for 3 hours and 10 people minimum are needed for the entire 3 hours to get the work done. Depending on how many volunteers we get, we may be able to break this into two shifts of 1.5 hours, with the other 1.5 hours for socializing and snacking. If people are interested/able to do the entire 3 hours that would be great.

For people only wanting to do 1.5 hours (6:00-7:30 pm or 7:30-9:00 pm), we will need an additional volunteer to replace them for the remainder of the shift. This changeover would happen at 7:30 pm to minimize disruption to the packing process.

TBE Table is a member-driven meal production and distribution program located in the TBE kitchen that produces healthy, delicious meals for those facing food insecurity.

Registration: This event is available in person. Please click the purple bar above to register.

A few gentle reminders (because we operate as a commercial kitchen):

• Dress code: Please wear closed toe shoes and long pants and tie back long hair. We ask for cell phones to remain with your belongings and not come into the kitchen. And please no watches or other jewelry (your wedding ring is fine to keep on).
• If you are new to the kitchen, a more seasoned volunteer will show you the steps to get ready including donning a hair net, washing hands, and finding an apron. Feel free to bring your own clean apron.
• Illness/shift changes: If you have to cancel or change your shift please contact Barb Turk at 781-929-4177. If you are ill or have been ill with fever, respiratory symptoms, or GI symptoms within the previous 48 hours, please also call me to discuss before coming in for your shift.

This event is sponsored by Prime Timers. Join other TBE members in their 50s, 60s and early 70s looking to make and deepen friendships and build connections, enjoy Shabbat dinners, and participate in educational, cultural, and social events.
