3. Still Need:

--disinfectant wipes.

--hot dog buns (need 800).
--snacks (granola bars, cookies, small things).
--water flavoring things (from Walmart or Dollar Tree--you pour the packet.
into water to make an orange drink, root beer, lemonade, etc.).
4. Action Items to Do/Address ASAP:
A.) I only found 1 pop-ups. We probably ought to put out the word that we need some
and see if we can borrow some. hat do you think?
B.) I got most of the stuff needed for the lunch and 650 small bags of chips.
--We still need 800 hot dog buns, 350 small bags of chips and MANY snacks (cookies, granola bars, etc.)
C.) Do you have someone who can bring a charcoal grill and propane to cook the hotdogs?
--I actually have one I use for my events and can load it on the trailer if needed
Assuming I have room in the trailer. I also have propane for this.
5. As for pipe and drape and privacy areas. . . I found quite a few pieces of room dividers that could be put together and used for privacy. Some pieces are only 4 feet tall BY 3 feet wide, though. I did find 5 or 6 pieces that are 6 feet tall BY 6 feet wide so maybe a combination of the 2 sizes would make enough of the private spaces? Let's talk about how much you are thinking we will need.
Howard and others:
--All of this will NOT fit into my trailer.
--We usually rent a 16 foot box truck to carry it (we usually have stools and MUCH MUCH MORE than this, though.
--It would probably ALL go into a truck that could pull my trailer
