FJ Cruisers of Northern California

All-Cal Meet - F&B and Supply Thread

NorCal, just wanted to start a thread to begin discussions on food, beverage and supplies. let us know what you are bringing to share or contribute. please note, you do not have to go in with a group buy/share...you are more than welcome to bring enough food and beverage for yourself.

for those of you who wish to contribute a meal and request sponsorship, please do it here. for example, you can say "i'm contributing chili cheese dogs for Saturday night - who wants in?" or "i'm contributing chili cheese dogs for Saturday night." the first example is a mini-group buy in which you break down costs between those who are interested in joining in on the meal. the second example is you bringing a set amount of food to contribute and plan to share with others in exchange for other food or beverage - kinda like a barter system.

enjoy!

you can never have enough burners in a large group situation in my opinion. however, if you are already packing a lot of stuff, don't worry about it.
