A famous nearby resident, Jehanne Benoit, (†1985, in Sutton) is the author of the "Encyclopedia of Canadian Cuisine." This menu is a tribute to her.
Ms Corbeau, aka Hurricane Helen, will cook up a storm and no one will leave hungry.

Like for SNOT 1, 2 & 3, this is a BYOB event. The map on the super-secret SNOB page shows there are three places to buy beer in the village (I love Québec!) as well as a SAQ, a government monopoly where booze is twice the price as in New Hampshire (I hate Québec!). Of course, for those arriving after 11 p.m. on Friday (when the dépanneurs stop selling beer), we'll have a stash of cold ones...
We'll supply all sorts of non-alcoholic beverages, for those who are high on life.
Like in the last years, in order to cover our costs, we'll place an empty coffee tin where participants can drop $5 for each meal. Yes, the price of staples has increased, but we're keeping the contributions at $5, as they've been since 2006. And it is worth it, past participants report...
In order to plan our purchase of supplies, please email me, at corbeau@grandcorbeau.com, and let me know if you plan to arrive Saturday or if you're part of the early birds riding up Friday after work. Thanks.
SNOB-Central has room for a couple of tents. Inside SNOB-Central, there is room for half a dozen ST-Ners, although four of them will be spooning, two by two. Not that there’s anything wrong with that. Couples will have priority on those two double beds. There's also two to four single bunks, a single folding bed and two spots on a large sectionnal couch.
