[Swoosh]

^Yeah, it's been discussed in this thread numerous times.

Back to the CC School, Here is the latest info. on the classes to be offered this Summer.
 I have a fascination with canning lately, and I wouldn't mind seeing what the canning process here entails. The others, I could leave be...

It all sounds like a real snooze.  You can get the same thing on Food Network and it's free.

I hate being a "backseat mod" but let's try to keep this thread on track for discussion of just things dealing with the 2011 project.  Let's move (or even better yet split) all Culinary School discussion to another thread. 

Thanks

[Joy]

Yeah, we're definitely getting off-topic. I'm not entirely sure how to go about splitting something into a new topic, so I'll let Steve take care of it next time he's on. I do think there seems to be enough interest to warrant a separate topic for the Culinary School.

[History Buff]

Thanks.  I was going to split it, but hadn't really had the time in the last two weeks.

I'm a foodie. I love watching cooking shows, reading about cooking, dreaming up my own creations, and enjoying a big meal.

But, even I don't get the attraction of the school. Maybe it's for people who think they get "authentic home cooking" at Cracker Barrel.

My guess is the park was attempting to profit from the success of food network and other similar programs. I really don't have any personal interest in doing anything at the location, except pass it by.

Keep in mind, the full name is the Culinary AND Arts School.  When do people get to learn some of the arts?

[PastorDon]

^Precisely my question HB!  My wife likes to cook, but I think she'd much rather take a class on basket making or quilting.  When are they going to start the "craft" part of the "Culinary and Craft School"?
