I agree, for the most part. I think the only disorganisation lay within some people needing to get food and not having opportunity, because they were unaware of when those who were driving would be going. Also, waiting til the 11th hour to get food could have been avoided if the runs were arranged in advance. The small core group involved knew what was going on... everyone else was in the dark.
We should absolutely leave it with people contributing their own food, though. If we all bring a little of something, everyone gets a lot more out of it!
I think if we know when/where to meet, and more than one person knows where we are going for a food run, it should be alot smoother.
It all worked out in the end, but it was quite 11th hour.

all this stuff was addressed on the flier that i printed out and distributed around con... but i needed alot more than the several hundred that dissapeared minutes after i lay them down....
i think advertising the schedule (once it is nailed down) will be my biggest priority this year.
-more fliers
-schedule posted on the website (months in advance)
-signs at the meeting points (food, caravan/taxi, and bbq site)
Ah so I am back from my forums vacation seem that the defcon 13 threads have started a bit early hope everyone’s holidays were good.
So moving on to the BBQ, I am really looking forward to this again and I have started work on the location and a map to the park with places to stop along the way for food and supplies. I am going to contact the parks and recreation services here to work on reserving the same spot we had last time as well as food/supplies/alcohol caravan route. I will also have recon pictures up soon.

As for the BBQ, I am game for whatever help y'all are gonna need. If I have transportation available, I will do some runs. If I can help out with anything else let me know. Last year was an incredible success.
