SCA Policy dictates...

* from: GOVERNING AND POLICY DECISIONS 

11. POLICY ON FIRST AID AT EVENTS (August 1985)

While organized first aid services are desirable at Society events, the
corporation may not be placed in the position of promising to provide
them. Therefore, while Society branches are encouraged to
make every effort to have qualified volunteer first aid personnel
available, they are specifically prohibited from requiring the presence of
a medical officer at events, and from in any way implying
that the Society's sponsorship of an event depends upon the presence of
organized first aid services. 

Phlip, my question to you is this. Are you at the List because of, perhaps a
misguided concept, that you are required to be there, or is it more a
personal thing? You, as a chirurgeon, are not required by law to attend the
List, and being in the kitchen would ensure that you "were on site" so I
don't see the problem of pursuing your passion of cooking. It sounds to me
that you are in a worse position than myself, in being that there are not
alot of cooks around to perform the task of kitchen steward evenly.  I'd say
forge ahead and do your own feast and wow them, as I'm sure you would.
