FAQs

When can I use the kitchen?

Answer:  This project is in the beginning phases, and we do not yet have a location for the kitchen at this time.  The project recently had $4,000,000 allocated to assist in the process of establishing the kitchen. With the continued work of the committee, we are hoping that there will be a kitchen in High Point within in the next couple of years.

Is there a waiting list for potential users?

Answer: We do not have a waiting list, but we are gathering a list of potential users through a survey.  By filling out the survey you are helping to establish the need for a future kitchen.   This will also allow us to contact you in the future and keep you up to date on the progress of this project.

What will the hours of the kitchen be?
