Enclosed you will find a copy of the set-up procedures for our new space.They are in considerable detail, but not really as formidable as they appear. We tried to make things as clear as possible, so that hospitality teams do not have to guess--hence the numbered items. Please save your copy for future reference. There will also be a copy at Headstart, posted inside the upper left cupboard door in the kitchen.
