It was determined that it could possibly be repaired with no guarantee of how long the repairs would last, at a cost of about $1,000.00.  Roger  used the internet to research pricing for a new unit.  He then consulted with several companies and found the best price for a new Hobart from C. Caprara at a cost of approximately $5,200.00  installed.  With Rotary meals and the Fiddlehead  supper coming right up, we need a reliable dishwasher.  Doing them by hand is not an option  If you would like to donate funds toward this purchase, please send a check with the reference ‘dishwasher fund’ in the corner.  Any help is much appreciated.

The vestry met on Sunday and approved
the purchase of a new dishwasher.
