Gayle Lamb, cash operations manager for food services, said that this was the last event of its kind at The Grill since the Anderson Student Center’s opening will turn the space into classrooms early next year. She said the event is something that food services likes to do every year around Christmas time.

“Just to break up the monotony in The Grill and it also shows support for our staff,” Lamb said. “In food service, we’re always serving the customer so this way it shows support from the administration too that they value our jobs. And it’s a lot of fun.”
