​On June 7th, 2018 from 10:30 to 12:30 P.M., the Cooks Table organized its final luncheon of the year, Pranzo Fresco. It was an alfresco style lunch to celebrate the teachers and staff at Lyman Hall. The students were able to use the brand new pizza ovens which are what made the lunch so successful. We thank everyone for the continued support and we loved serving everyone. In addition to the successful luncheon, profits were donated to the Master Manna Food Pantry.
