"The competition is fierce, and the chefs will need to be intensely focused for the next two years if they want to impress the international judges. We want to ensure that our team is prepared and equipped to go up against young chefs from other countries and showcase Canadian food and Canadian talent."
Fund raising is just one facet of the challenge facing these young chefs. They have already begun a rigorous training regimen as they prepare for upcoming competitions in Scotland and Wales, Youdale explained.
"After weeks of practise, the team had what was essentially a dress-rehearsal for the competitions. This gave them an opportunity to smooth out all of the rough edges."
"Just as other Olympic teams deserve and garner attention and support, so too do our culinary Olympians. In addition to the college's support, the team has many other fans across the country. Local and national companies are providing products and financial donations to help them as they prepare for competition. While we are off to a great start, the cost of travelling to international competitions is steep, and the team will need and be seeking all of the resources they can gather," he added.
