Food Service manager
The Academy Drum & Bugle Corps is looking for a Food Truck Manager for the 2021 season and beyond. This paid position requires someone with a background in food preparation for large groups. (Catering or school cafeteria/dining hall experience would be a plus.) Drum corps experience is preferred – running a mobile kitchen for an extended time period requires a unique skill set.
 
Meals are provided at all winter/spring camps and throughout the summer season. Travel with the corps would be required during the summer season, which is usually about 80 days. While not required to work the entire season, a major portion is expected.
 
While not always easy, this job is one of the most rewarding experiences to be a part of. Having 200 hard working young people and staff thank you daily for preparing the food they need to be able to perform at an incredibly high level is very gratifying.
