Placing a Catering Order

Please call the Conferencing Office located in the Student Center, North Platte Room, to reserve a room and to help with your food service. The phone number is (308) 432-6380 or you can e-mail, Shellie Johns sjohns@csc.edu, Connie Frandson cfrandson@csc.edu, or Laure Hawthorne lhawthorne@csc.edu.

Menus/Exclusivety

All food and beverage items served on the campus of Chadron State College will be supplied and prepared by CSC Dining Service unless otherwise authorized by the Director of Dining and Coordinator of Conferencing.

Guidelines

Please give us the time we need to prepare for your event. While we may be able to accommodate your needs with less lead-time, we prefer the opportunity to do our best for you.

CSC Dining Services recommends that food for meals and receptions are ordered a minimum of seven (7) business days in advance for all catered events. All refreshment orders should be placed a minimum of five (5) business days before the event. A guaranteed count of the people expected to attend is required five (5) business days prior to the catering event. A change in the number of people attending the event can be accepted, up to two (2) business days prior to the event.

Cancellations

In the event of a service cancellation, the event will be charged for food and labor costs already incurred at the time of the cancellation.  Please call CSC Conferencing Office  at 308-432-6380. 

Any remaining food or food service related items that are left over after your catered function cannot be taken from a catered event due to Nebraska Department of Health regulations.

Signed Contract

Some events may require a signed contract or security deposit.  For more information on the signed contract, give the CSC Conferencing Office a call at 308-432-6380.

Delivery Fees

Delivery fees are charged for items delivered outside the Student Center:

  • On-campus: $5.00
  • Off-campus: $25.00

Guarantee and Minimums

Events are billed on the basis of a guaranteed number.  A five percent (5%) leeway is allowed (Ex. CSC Dining Serives will prepare for 105 on a 100 guarantee, but if the number is fewer thean 95, you will be charged for 95).  If the guaranteed count varies significantly from the estimate given, you may be responsible for expenses incurreed unless prior arrangements have been made.  Due to ordering and elivery schedules, supplies are ordered based on estimates.

Billing Details

Billing will be processed through the Conferencing Office following the event. Payments will need to be made within fourteen days of the event.

Overrun Charges

Catering staff will be available for a maximum of two hours at an event. If your event requires staff time in excess of two hours please make those arrangements in advance. An additional charge will be assessed for this additional staff time.
