Kiddush Coordinator Most of the time, we have a kiddush, not a full lunch. The kiddush coordinator is responsible for everything the food coordinator does, such as getting keys from the previous week's food coordinator, except that instead of preparing a meal, just purchase and set up a kiddush in the vestibule. The kiddush can be as elaborate or simple as your imagination allows. It is Minyan policy to reimburse the kiddush coordinator for expenses. Minimum requirements are wine and juice, and some sort of munchie food.
Items usually included are fruit and nuts.
Please do not provide bread or challah as this is not a full meal and doesn't require benching. Closing the shul or finding someone else to do so, is still your responsibility. The food coordinator is responsible for the community lunch or kiddush that follows services. Take calls on or before Wednesday evening, making sure that there is a balance of entrees, salads, drinks, desserts, etc. Please make sure that there are both wine and juice for kiddush and challah if we are having lunch.
