Suggested dress code for Menus of Change is business casual attire; chef's uniforms are not necessary. Conference activities involve sitting for general sessions and breakout sessions in conference rooms, walking around outside on campus to get to breakout sessions, and networking during walk-around receptions and networking activities.

The Hudson Valley often experiences afternoon showers in June, so you may want to bring an umbrella to protect yourself from the elements, especially when moving around campus for breakout sessions and meals. We recommend coming prepared with layers for warmer and cooler environments so that you can adjust your own temperature accordingly.

Please help us in our efforts to be sustainable by bring a reusable water bottle. Water stations will be available throughout the conference.
