Uh... what?

My company is having a "Turkey Feast" next week to celebrate Thanksgiving. Our department secretary sent out an email requesting volunteers for various services. The following is a line from that email:

Need 6 Carvers (and your carving knives from home) – email Alex/Ron if you can help CARVE, this will go hand/hand with Birds that come in from outside, being Deep Fried;

Normally I can tell what this lady means to say, but this one is far trickier than most. Hand/hand? What? And why are the "Birds" outside? Are we chasing down wild turkeys? What the heck is she trying to communicate?

Trust me, you have as much context as I do. And yes, I'm tremendously bothered by her random capitalization.

(Not looking for answers, btw, just sharing the hilarity.)
