Congratulations to Christine Gilbert, a much loved Folk School Dining Hall Chef for 28 years.

Here’s Christine and Tim Ryan at Christine’s retirement party on Friday. There were lots of people vying for a photo with the fabulous Christine.

Christine has not only cooked delicious meals at the Dining Hall, but is also a Brasstown Carver! The Folk School wishes Christine a very happy retirement and many more years of carving.

    The suppers at JCCFS were never better than when Christine was in charge. Thanks to a wonderful lady and all the best in retirement.

    What a fantastic employee and cook. We will miss her smiles and deserts, but most of all her wonderful and welcoming spirit! I hope she will find time again to start carving for the Craft Shop.
