Susan, Why don't you take care of the popcorn, fish and containers for the popcorn. I will do the pop and the rest. I will get 8 bottles, 5 diet and 3 regular. I have all the drink cups, coffee and associated things for snacks. I will bring the usual store of "packaged" snacks for the nonpopcorn crowd. AFA things like juice, it is worth coordinating with me. As the club snack person, I have quite a few things on hand including quite a bit of juice which to my surprise hasn't been that popular. Don't worry though, everything always goes at the auction. Big, hungry, thirsty crowd. :-) June > Hi June: > > Okay, we can go with the 2L bottles. How many? More diet?
