Event Description
2010
This is a new event we made to replace this year's Lunar New Year festival, since our schedule was pushed back due to ITASA and we had trouble reserving a large venue. The event had two main parts: a potluck-style dinner from around 7:30-8:30 in McCormick Dining, followed by a family talent show and game booths from 8:30-10:30 in the living room. We also reserved the country kitchen for cooking. The event was open to all GBM members, but we encouraged family participation by giving out prizes for potluck dishes (best meat, best vegetable, best dessert, best presentation, and president's choice), as well as prizes for talent show entries (best overall, most creative, best display of family bonding, and honorable mention/most enthusiastic) & playing games.
The booths were battleship twister, Taboo, family quiz, and family photo-taking.
Preparation
2010
We made a google form so that families could submit the ingredients needed to prepare their dishes & where the ingredients should be delivered, plus their entry into the talent show if applicable.
Attendance
2010
~30-40?
Notes
2010 Setup
- We made a long line of tables in McCormick Dining for people to put their potluck dishes.
- We arranged the chairs and tables in the living room into four areas. The most setup was probably for battleship twister, which needed two couches to separate the twister mats, and a laptop & projector on top of a round table to display the grid.
Food
- Getting volunteer cooks
- Making the shopping list & purchasing ingredients
- Delivering ingredients to cooks
- Getting prizes & judges
Games
- Games can usually be borrowed from dorm supplies
- The photo booth needs a printer, ink, and paper
- Someone to be at the booth to explain the games
