So, there has been a lot of questions as to what each person should bring... What I would like to suggest is simply that everyone bring what they enjoy eating, and then bring a little extra to share with others.
This year, I would like to try to save some expenses by doing a more Pot Luck style event. I will be providing the Fried Chicken and Fried Potatos for Saturday night, but I would like the rest of the meals to be a bring and share type of thing... I would suggest that everyone bring a variety of things that others might like. The things that we want to avoid too much of are the things like potato chips, snack foods, etc. I'm not suggesting not to bring these things, simply that these are food items that everyone tends to bring a lot of. We should try to bring things like fruit, pasta salad, sandwich fixins, etc. Try to consider things that will hold well in a cooler for a few days. The main meals that will be Friday Evening, Saturday morning, Saturday night, and Sunday morning. The campground will bring donuts for us on Sunday.
Here is a list of some of the things that we could use... Please reply if you have these things
1) Large coffee brewing equipment. (100 cup brewer and coffee supplies)
2) Screened in tents (we have two awnings from the campground that are avaialble but could use more).
3) Weather Channel Radio
4) Firewood
5) Extension Cords
6) Tarps for weather protection
7) DVD Projector and large screen (I think that Doran might have the projector)
8. Outdoor Chairs
9) Extra Life Jackets, Dock Line, Gear Oil, 2 Cycle Oil, motor oil, etc.
10) Tool Kits, Jumper Cables, Tow ropes, Jumper Start Pack, Spot lights, etc.
11) Lanterns, flashlights
12) lawn games
13) Turkey Fryer and Propane tanks
14) Tiki Torches
15) Video Cameras (Vance is going to be doing some video editing for us again this year)
What else do we need? If you can think of something, please make the suggestion. If you have some of these things, please post that you have it covered!
Thanks!
