Hi All,
I have collected the responses, and thanks to everyone who offered their preferances. Below are the results:
- The date that was voted for most was Sunday the 2nd of December.
- Almost everyone thinks we should do it in Yarralumla
- According to the survey, 34 people (no dogs) will be coming, no vegeterians or special diet needs
With that in mind, lets start planning this. I want to start selling tickets so we can purchase the food. For that, we need to decide what we want, calculate the cost for a single person, and I can set up a ticket purchasing site so you can transfer money to us and we will purchase everything in costco. We were thinking of some knackwursts (costco sells them in packs of 10, they are easy to cook), a varaiety of soft drinks in an ice bucket, and BYO if you want something stronger.
We also need to scout a location (which we can do this weekend) - we are looking for an area with a hot plate, not in the section that doesnt allow dogs, near the yarralamla dog park. If anyone knows of any tricks to assure that we will have a good location, please let us know.
Please respond to this email with opinions or suggestions, so by the end of the week we can announce officially the ticket price and start preparations.
