Christmas Lunch Provided by Staff and December and January Prep Birthday Dinner
Last month we attended the Christmas Lunch for Preppies served by the Prep Staff as well as the Birthday Dinner last month for Preppies with December birthdays and we also stopped by for the January Birthday Dinner last night. As with every month the Preppies were treated to a dinner by the High Country Inn Dining Facility (DFAC) last night.

Birthday Dinners
Facility manager, Mr. Luciano Moya makes sure that every student gets a birthday dinner. Even cadet candidates whose birthdays do not fall during the prep academic year between August 1 and April 30, still get their dinner. May-July birthdays get their dinner in August. No one is missed.
Each of the Preppies is served by the DFAC staff. Dinner includes a green salad, choice of steak or chicken cordon bleu, dinner rolls, and the non-alcoholic beverage of their choice. Dessert is cake and ice cream. The ice cream is always provided by Chef Jeff who pays for it out of his own pocket each month.
