Community Center Kitchen Project
The Bolinas Community Center (BCC) kitchen is currently being used by Community Center renters to prep and serve food during and for events as well as a Commercial Kitchen for local businesses. The whole community benefits from having a fully functional and up-to-date Commercial Kitchen.
What we have done so far:
The Bolinas Community Center has put on fundraisers which have raised most of the funds needed for the remodel. Thank you to everyone who volunteered and contributed to make this all happen!
The BCC has purchased and installed the three new sinks (hand washing, three compartment dish washing sink and the vegetable rinsing sink). We also fixed the drywall and flooring around the sinks, upgraded to brighter lights and installed FRP (Fire Retardant Paneling) in half of the kitchen. We also upgraded the kitchen door to be ADA compliant.
We removed the old hood installed the new 10-foot stainless steel hood. We have purchased and installed a brand new Vulcan 10 burner propane stove. We turned our old “piano room” for extra lockable kitchen storage.
What we still hope to accomplish:
- Tiled Floor in kitchen
- New Cabinets in kitchen
- Small walk-in installed in the Plaza
- New Prep Area in kitchen once a walk-in is built
- New electric convection oven
