Please Note: This event is limited to ProStart educators.
The ARHA Foundation is excited to announce the 2026 ProStart® Invitational. Students representing their high school’s ProStart® program will participate in culinary and management competitions which allows ProStart® students to showcase their skills that they have learned in the classroom. This event is made possible through the support of our industry.
There are many ways to help. Please remember that all sponsorship donations are tax deductible.
Over 50 individuals are needed to staff a ProStart® competition. If you would like to volunteer on the day of the competition, we would love your help. We also need judges with backgrounds in culinary, restaurant management and marketing.
