The signups for Salsa and Spaghetti Sauce will open on May 7th @ 6:05 a.m. (That’s right! You can sleep an extra 5 minutes!!! No need to say Thank You.)
- There will be a limit of 6 cases per person for each product and both products will cost $15.00/case of 12 pint jars (16 oz).
- You are only allowed to sign up for one shift per person.
- If you are not ordering the full limit, please only schedule one person per household to be fair to others.
- If you are helping a 2nd person sign up, it must be under a different name. Duplicate registrations (2nd entry with the same name) will be deleted so others will have the chance to sign up.
Please pay special attention to the FDA rules on how to dress for your shift. The weather will be warm by that time (fingers crossed, prayers answered) and you will be tempted to wear shorts and sandals/flip-flops. DO NOT WEAR SHORTS OR SANDALS/FLIP-FLOPS TO YOUR SHIFT. We have some real fashion-statement boots that you will be asked to wear—that many other people have also worn—if you do not comply.
Those scheduling for the 1st day of any product will have to come back at a later, specified date (see instructions on the link) to pick up their product.

Those who were able to sign up for Jam: Reminders for your shifts will be sent on Thursday, April 28th or Friday, April 29th. Please make sure that the date and time listed on the reminder is when you thought you were coming and be sure that you are still able to fill this shift. If there is a conflict, please go to the sign-up link and UNDO your shift so those who are waiting to sign up can fill your spot.
Those who are waiting for an opportunity to sign up for Jam: Return to the links often to see if spots have become available. You are looking for a box that says “Schedule this shift” on a day (link) and time (signup column) that you are available to come and work. There will either be a name with an UNDO box or a “Schedule This Shift” box in each available spot. If you see any blank boxes, it means we did not need that spot on that shift.
If you go to the website and it says “This Sign-up is Currently Closed”, that is when you need to call the Cannery (801-785-0998) to cancel your shift or check for available openings.

Prices at LDS canneries show inflation
Prices at LDS canneries show inflation for food up between 11 and 49%
By Kenneth Schortgen Jr, Finance Examiner
April 7th, 2011 1:17 pm ET
Price inceases on April 4th at the LDS canneries show inflation up between 11 and 49% for many basic food staples. These rise in prices are a strong barometer for the overall economy since the LDS facilities are usually the last to raise prices for their communities, which provides food in bulk that they can collect through their vast networking operations.
According to the new price list from April 4th, many food staples have increased by more than 20% since the last price list came out just 3 months ago on January 3rd.
Beans. Black 13.69%
Beans, Pinto 12.13%
Beans, White 11.88%
Milk, Non Fat Dry 25.00%
Rice 38.99%
Sugar 33.81%
Wheat, Red/White 44.54%
Apple Slices 24.53%
Carrots 21.31%
Macaroni 40.25%
Oats, Quick 48.90%
Oats, Regular 49.19%
Onions 21.60%
Potato Flakes 33.33%
Spaghetti 38.99%
Beans, Refried 27.72%
Cocoa Mix 40.69%
Flour 29.70%
Fruit Drink Mix 26.20%

LDS churches and organizations have long been at the forefront in preparedness for families and communities. As one of the wealthiest corporations in the world, their network of companies and church affiliations allow them access to cheaper food sources, and the capacity to store them for long periods of time through their canning facilities.
As the government and Federal Reserve continues to tell the American people that inflation is low, and contained by their monetary policies, the real barometer of inflation in the economy comes from the grocers, markets, and institutions that deal with food sales and production, and must monitor prices daily as commodities continue to climb.
The LDS's raising food prices at their canneries by 11 to 49% in just three months should be a serious wakeup call to all Americans on the true inflationary conditions that exist in our economy, and that we need to constantly look outside government reports for the true data affecting our spending and finances.

ONE MORE DAY FOR JAM!
We are adding one more day for Jam, but this is the last day we will be able to offer. Please do not schedule for more than one shift per person at this time. We want as many people as possible to have a chance to get on the schedule. We also ask that if you become aware of schedule conflicts, please remember to UNDO your shift so others will be able to come.
At 5:00 pm today (April 5th) we will open another sign up for Wednesday, May 18th. You may go to the link and read the instructions beforehand, just remember to refresh your screen at 5:00 so the page will become active to sign up.
http://www1.mysignup.com/cgi-bin/view.cgi?datafile=6jam_wed_may_18
Click on the above link to schedule. Keep this email to have all the links necessary to check back over the next couple of days for updated openings. Please remember to only schedule one person per household unless you are ordering more than the 6 case limit per person.
All information below is a copy of the email sent last Friday. Those who didn’t receive this email previously will need to read on. If you have already read this information, you can stop reading here. However, everyone who signs up for this opportunity is responsible for all information given in Friday’s email below:
Friday’s Email (+ links for all of the days listed at the bottom):
Dear Subscribers:
We just barely finished our canned beef shifts and it is already time to start thinking ahead to our next family canning opportunity! We know this is a little ahead of schedule, but we still have to finalize our fruit order—so we need you to look ahead and sign up quickly if you want to participate.
The online sign-ups for Strawberry and Marion Blackberry Jam will open on Saturday, April 2nd at 6:00 a.m. We will be processing on May 10th-13th. Each flavor of jam comes in a case of 12 pint jars. Strawberry Jam will cost $18.60/case and Marion Blackberry Jam will cost $25.20/case. There is a combined limit of 6 cases. (Example: 4 cases strawberry + 2 cases marionberry = the 6 case limit. OR 6 cases strawberry + 0 cases marionberry = 6 case limit.)
Everyone knows that strawberry jam is wonderful; but for those who have never tasted the Marionberry Jam, we lovingly call it the “celestial kingdom jam”--so don’t miss out! (smiling)
To help you plan ahead, we will tell you that jam has a “best by” date of 3 years but will store on the shelf for a long, long time. We also rotate the flavors every other year. So, next year—IF we have time to offer jam (depending on our welfare assignments for the Church)--we probably won’t be doing these two flavors.
The Cannery always wants to work at full capacity, so please offer any unwanted cases to someone who isn’t able to come and work a shift. Have them pay you for their cases and you pay the Cannery. (We can not accept payment from those who don’t actually come to work at our facility.) Also, until we see how quickly sign-ups will fill up, please do not schedule multiple people from the same household if you are not ordering more than the 6 case limit. This request allows more people to participate.
Please remember that the shifts last for 2.5 hours. This is so we can continue to work while the next shift is being oriented. We have had several people come to their shift and ask to leave early. You need to make sure you schedule your shift at a time that you can stay for the entire 2.5 hours.
Also, please read all instructions for each signup page so you understand any differences in product availability. You are accountable for knowing and remembering what you are committing to do. Even though the online signups are not yet open for scheduling, you can still look at the signups beforehand and read the instructions by selecting the link you want to schedule:
