High School Sports Team Banquet

B&M Catering had the honor of catering the banquets for the Oliver Ames High School Cross Country and Girls Soccer teams. Parents, athletes and coaches enjoyed the fare.

Athletes and proud parents!  We sure do have fun catering high school sports team banquets.   Recently we had the honor of catering both the Oliver Ames Girls Soccer Team and the Oliver Ames Cross Country Team Banquets on two separate occasions.  Both of  these teams had just finished incredible seasons with new records set all around. Most striking to us was to watch the students with each other.  The feeling of camraderie and support and acceptance of all was undeniable.  

Here’s what Leslie F., banquet organizer for the girls soccer team had to say about the food and service at her banquet:

“I was thrilled with B & M.  Having known that Neil had chosen them for the XC banquet this year, I knew the food would be good.  It was excellent and the staff was top notch from beginning to end. All phone calls and emails were answered promptly and with helpful service.  It is always a challenge to serve a large group hot food in a short period of time.  They arrived at the appropriate time, were friendly and professional and made everything run smoothly.  They even made sure the Caesar was served into bowls, so the guests could just grab one and go….it really helped the line move quickly, and it was a great idea.  They always have limited access to the kitchen prep area, so everything that is needed must be transported.  They anticipated every need, and I heard nothing but compliments about the food.  The staff was super nice and helpful that evening. They helped clear the tables and made sure everything was cleaned up on their end.  When I told them we were going to drop the leftovers at the Fire Station, they made sure it was all boxed up and easy for transport.  I would highly recommend B & M, and would definitely use them again. “

The Cross Country team had the cafeteria decked out in Oliver Ames’ black and orange. April S., organizer for this team’s banquet had this to say about her experience:

“I dealt with Amanda at the B&M office.  She helped me plan for a head count of 302 for the OAXC banquet. The menu was penne & sauce, chicken marsala, bread and Caesar salad. I thought the food was very good. Everyone seemed to agree. The service was great! They set up before they served and cleaned up after we were done. I spoke with the servers, Sue and Sean, prior to the banquet they were both very personable.”
