QUESNEL–CNC opened its on-campus, healthy and affordable, food service today (Tuesday, Sept.10th.)

CNC Students’ Union (CNCSU) Quesnel Student Representative Brittany Marsh says she’s met many students who were stressed at the thought of having to go downtown between classes to grab a healthy lunch.

Marsh was determined to find a solution to the issue and approached local business, Jean’s Side Door Catering, who agreed to offer on-campus food service three days a week. “When I joined the CNCSU, one of the things I really wanted to do was implement a food service program on campus,” she said. “Having this here will help build up campus life in Quesnel, which, as both a student and representative of the CNCSU, is important to me.”

Students will now be able to enjoy an assortment of salads, soups, sandwiches, wraps, hot dogs and other lunch and breakfast items ranging from $2-$6 an item. The menu was developed with two things in mind, health and affordability. Jean’s Catering will be at the CNC on Tuesday’s, Wednesday’s and Thursday’s from 10 AM to 2 PM, currently the service is cash only.
