2017 Lake Powell Meal Planning

[OneBlade]

All right, let's start some meal planning.  Take a look back at last year's meals they were exceptional.  Last year mealtime was 7pm and unless there is majority consensus to move that, I saw we stick with that time.  Saturday people arrive at different times so your meal on Saturday is on your own.  Need people to signup for Sunday through Friday evening meals where Friday evening is the fish fry.  Please be sure and save a bag of fillets to donate for the Friday fish fry.

** Update ** Every group doing a meal should supply plates, napkins, forks, etc. for their meal for the 20-25 people that will be eating. 

Cousinlll and Stevert are both bringing an extra folding table.

This thread (http://forum.azcrappie.com/index.php/topic,3239.30.html) says there are 20 people - I assume everyone on that list is going and planning on having meals with everyone, correct?  Timbo and I are arriving Tuesday for dinner so only 18 to feed Sunday and Monday.

*******  MEALS LIST FOR 20 PEOPLE WITH MEALTIME 7:00PM ********

Saturday, April 29th - Arrival day with supper being your own responsibility

Sunday (sparkchaser & FishMan) -- Chili and cornbread

Monday (Stevert & Marv) -- They are bringing something.... don't know what, it's a surprise.

Tuesday (Cousinlll & Billy Ho) -- Cavatini w/ Garlic Bread, possibly a side salad & homemade limoncello

Wednesday (Sandman & PattiSue) -- Red beans, rice, and sausage

Thursday (Freshwater,  Wheathin, Tweeder) -- Ham & Scalloped Potatoes

Friday (OneBlade, Timbo, Mike, Debbie) -- Fish Fry, fried potatoes, baked beans, cole slaw/potato salad, maybe dessert

Saturday, May 6th - Leave for home!

It'll surely take a truck load of grub to feed all 20 peeps every evening!!

Billy Ho & I will take Tuesday evening serving our usual - Cavatini w/ Garlic Bread, possibly a side salad & homemade limoncello

Matt - I'll bring an extra folding table & I'll also get some Chinet Dinner Platters.  With the number of peeps going this year we might need to double up on the plates, bowl & utensils?

Good point Larry.

With 20 people, do we need to re-think our meal strategy? That's a lot of food to prepare. No big deal for my red beans, rice, and sausage but it may be a concern for others.

We'll take Wednesday night.

Regarding doubling up on plates, plasticware, napkins, etc, sure we can do that.  It's just a numbers thing if we want then 2 people can do it.  20 times 6 nights + 20% extra of plates, plasticware, and napkins.  Divide that into 2.  I updated the top post indicating we can have 2 people bring stuff for 3-4 meals and if 2 people do that then we won't have any shortage.

[Stevert]

We'll take Monday. 

[sparkchaser]

Our boat will take Sunday. Pulled pork sandwiches, baked beans, coleslaw.

If everyone brought their own bowl, plate, silverware and glasses, all that we would need to worry about is napkins. Lots less trash.

Freshwater,  Wheathin,  Tweeder  Will take the Thursday feed

[freshwater]

We'll be having ham and scalloped potatoes and trimmings.

[OneBlade]

Hmmm that may put Timbo and I in charge of the fish fry unless anyone else wants to give it a shot.

Sandman, can you bring another cast iron pan I can use as a second one on my camp stove?
