December 13th Festive Holiday Party
This is a holiday event reminiscent of the "old days" in the organization's history. Let's break out the fancy clothes and share the event with our significant others. Employer's may be cutting back on their holiday festivities, but here at CSIFT we want a party to cherish the holiday, the love of good food and wine, and the companionship of our spouses, friends and loved ones. All couples will receive a complimentary bottle of wine to bring home with them!

Message From The Chair
Pamela Vaillancourt
December Message
Hello CSIFT Members.
Food science and all the surrounding food professions are careers/positions in an industry to be proud of! Over time, we have changed the world's food supply allowing safe and abundant food and water. Yes, I realize our work is not done here in our homeland & globally and that we have more to do, and we will. For this Holiday Season, be thankful for the safe and bountiful contributions that our career choices have created. Share with others and be giving of your knowledge and your time.
Are you aware that we have been adding programs CSIFT to "give back"? Last year we added a food bank donation program to one of our meetings knowing that our contributions would be the beginning of a way to support our communities. Read More... |
