Les Gourmets 2012
Pure Michigan
Pure Michigan
The premier annual event in The School is Les Gourmets. Founded as a student organization in 1951, students in Les Gourmets produced their first dinner in 1955. Starting as a simple buffet and dinner dance, the event has since evolved into a formal (black-tie suggested), seven-course, world-class reception and dinner showcasing the talents of hundreds of student volunteers and all they have learned from their professors and work experiences. Under the direction of Professor Allan Sherwin (BA '64) and with the guidance of other distinguished faculty members and guest chefs, the students work in all areas - management, sales, marketing, purchasing, finance, culinary management, bartending, and serving - creating a night to remember each spring for hundreds of guests.
The theme for this year's event was Pure Michigan. By showcasing the wonderful state that many of us call home through the event Les Gourmets, the Executive Board aimed to give guests an appreciation of the wonderful local produce, beverages, and talent Michigan has to offer. The menu, entertainment, and décor highlighted aspects of the state that excite us, awaken our senses and spark our imaginations.
Lindsey acted as Arts and Entertainment Supervisor. She carried out this event from conception to execution, focusing on the overall evening ambience as well as the intricate details to ensure a smooth and elegant experience.
