I assume that SCA access to public school kitchens varies from state 
to state and perhaps even from school board to school board.

Here in NoCal, we might be able to use a school kitchen, if a member 
of their staff is present and we pay their salary for the event.Our 
Collegia are now almost always money losers because of low 
attendance. This additional expense would make the Collegium even 
more of a bank breaker. Needless to say, because we want to continue 
to hold Collegia, even though they cost the Kingdom money, we make do 
in other ways.
