Alcohol sales contribute to about 75% of our donations from both PNC and BOA. Due to this, it is REQUIRED that all volunteers obtain the ServSafe certification. This certificate is valid for 3 years. The amount of money you are able to raise through our volunteer program will certainly outweigh the cost of this cour
As volunteers, we must follow all state, county, and local alcohol laws. The most important ones being....
Number 1 - Don't sell or serve alcohol to a minor! and Number 2 - Don't serve an intoxicated guest!
The license to sell alcohol is a privilege. Any violations could result in the loss of this license or hefty fines.
We can only sell alcohol through "cut off" time. This varies amongst events, so you will need to make sure you are aware of when it will be.
You can help evaluate the levels of impairment guests by watching for the following signs:
Judgement - they are careless with money, use foul language, or are argumentative
Inhibitions - they are loud, rude, or flirty
Reactions - they are glassy eyed, talk slowly, or lose focus
Coordination - they stumble, spill drinks, or use slurred speech
Some guests may not show any signs of impairment, but still be impaired.
This is usually because of a high tolerance. Tolerance can mask the signs of intoxication.
Knowing the factors that impact how alcohol is absorbed in the body can also help determine if a guest is intoxicated.
You will need to consider the guest's:
Gender - women have a higher BAC
Rate of Consumption - how fast are they drinking
Age - older guests have a harder time processing alcohol
Size - smaller people process alcohol faster
Strength of the Drink - liquor shots have the highest alcohol content
Food - eating while drinking will slow the absorption rate
BAC is the amount of alcohol in the body.
The more alcohol one drinks, the higher the BAC. BAC is affected by absorption rate factors. The only way to test someone's BAC is through a blood test or a breathalyzer.
You cannot speed up the rate at which the body eliminate alcohol. Time is the only thing that can make a guest sober.
A 200 pound man, who is 30 years old, drinking on an empty stomach would
have approximately the following
BAC levels after one hour:
2 drinks = 0.03 BAC
4 drinks = 0.07 BAC
8 drinks = 0.14 BAC
12 drinks = 0.22 BAC
*The legal limit is 0.08
The amount of total alcohol in a drink depends on the serving size and the Alcohol by Volume (ABV) for each type.
12 oz of beer = 5% ABV
5 oz of wine = 12% ABV
1.5 oz of 80 proof liquor = 40% ABV
All alcohol beverages contain pure alcohol and that's what causes impairment.
Guests must be 21 years of age to purchase and consume alcohol.
CDYC's policy is to card everyone, regardless of each venue's policy.
When in doubt, don't sell!
Always make a reasonable effort to respect the venue's alcohol license, our non-profit group, and yourself.
Driver's License from US, Canada, or Mexico
NC State Issued ID Card
US Military ID
Foreign or Domestic Passport
Volunteers must examine IDs for validity.
Check the issuing authority, birth date, photo, signature, and expiration date.
Examine the lamination to see if it is frayed, torn, or damaged.
Look for these warning signs to help prevent illegal alcohol sales:
A guest at the back of the line hands another guest money
A guest looks away to hide her face while you check ID
A guest is moving from section to section a lot
A guest states that he is a friend of one of the employees and doesn't need to show ID
A guest picks up an empty cup and heads for the concessions stand
A guest refuses to remove the ID
ONE Mixed Drink
ONE Frozen Drink
TWO Beers
TWO Wines
ONE Beer ONE Seltzer
ONE Beer ONE Wine
ONE Seltzer One Wine
*All of PNC's mixed drinks contain 2 ounces of liquor which is considered a double shot.
These are a bit different for each venue.
Serving limits are per ID,
not necessarily per person.
For example, If two guests come together and order 3 beers, they must both present an ID.
Please make sure that the volunteer who
IDs the guests is the same one who
serves the alcohol.
For example, a runner cannot physically hand over a beer to a guest if they are not the one who carded them.
TWO drinks of any kind per ID
*Our stand only serves beer and seltzer.
If they come to our stand with one
liquor drink from the bar, we can
only sell them one beer or seltzer.
