[Coil-l] unCOILed 2013: New development with lunches

[Sarah Clark]

I agree with  a longer lunch period, or biting the bullet and upping the price to cover the meals. How many people have regged? It's not ideal, but you could withdraw the flyer and stop taking money until this is sorted. Langston is near OKC but really pretty far out, not sure if we'd save any money going the food truck route as we might have to pay them something to cover their gas and any money they'd miss out on by not being in their usual spot (assuming that a food truck didn't count as bringing in lunch anyway). While 90 minutes might be doable, I think you'd be safer with 1:45 or 2 hours if we do a dinearound in Guthrie. I do NOT recommend skipping lunch.

I don't think skipping lunch is a good idea.  I would prefer to extend the allotted lunch time.

Greetings all,

Just curious how you folks weigh in on this.  It turns out that catering/box lunches is cost prohibitive at Langston. So, we have a few options.  One option is to add extra time to the lunch hour so that folks can travel to Guthrie to eat.  This would add about thirty minutes on to the lunch hour, as Guthrie is a bit of a drive.  That would put lunch at 12:15 PM- 1:45 PM.  Our last session would be 2:00 PM - 2:45 PM, and wrap up would be 3:00 PM -3:15 PM.

The second option would be to offer a light snack, and push everything forward skipping lunch.  In which case we would have a 30 minute break for posters and snacks, and continue on, wrapping up the conference at 2:00 PM-2:15 PM.  What do you folks think?

I'm fine with either choice.  Lunches allow a chance to catch up with your friends and peers.  A shortened schedule gets people back on the road to home earlier :)
