    Good evening everyone,


    Its getting close and I can't wait to work with you all. Looks like we have 11 confirmed to come help make this Reef food.


    Event: DIY Reef food making


    Location: Reefifieds house at 4295 Rec Dr Marion, IA 52302


    Time: 11am


    We will be ordering pizza also if everyone wants to. A drink of your choice is welcome and Leaded or unleaded. We are thinking it maybe Mandatory to have leaded on hand. lol


    Tickyty-Cutting Board, Food Processor and Knives

    BigKel-Cutting Board, Knives and 3 buckets of R/O water for rinsing.

    tbraz-Knives,Drill and Dry wall paddle. Is the paddle new?

    blackxrunner- Food Processor. This will be the 3rd one, but I think bring it just in case..

    gburkart-?

    Reefified-Hosting

    Lee- Cutting Board, Knife, Bucket of RO/DI

    Lilnicky-

    incuplayer-

    HarlyHawk-

    ShaneP-


    I think we need to have a good corded drill for the mixing of the 20gal beer keg tub of food. If you have one please just bring it in case we need to use it. If I have missed you on the helpers list or if you plan to bring something and I didn't get it on here please let me know.

    The list below is what we are getting from Bud in DM. I plan on there being a chopping and cutting crew, Food processor crew and thawing crew. We will also have a mixing crew.


    I have done this before in little batches, but the large batches and the fact we are working with Squid and Octopus is interesting to me.


    20g keg tub (club)

    Food processor (club)

    2 plastic colanders (club)

    1 large net (mine)

    5 small measuring cups (club)

    S set of spatulas (club)

    1 drywall mud mixing paddle (club)

    2 digital scales (1 club, 1 mine)

    Several 1g pails for various uses (club)


    I also have an additional food processor that I will pass along just in case (always good to have more) as long as I get it back. I'll also throw in some micro-fiber cloths for various cleanup use.


    Really the main thing people will need to bring is cutting boards and knives


    It also helps to have a lot of table space, Reefified will there be space for setting up extra tables? How many sinks are available for thawing food? Some of the thawing can start first thing in the morning in the 20g keg tub.


    See you all there and for those people that have ordered food and will not be able to help I will post an updated list and will get a time for pickup scheduled soon after.


    Thanks everyone!

    For you Lee its 20 a bag. /DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default/emoticons/smile.gif

    Bud also posted this for us!

    If anyone wants to paypal the funds that's OK as long as GIRS doesn't pay the fee, and the payment should go to the GIRS treasurer account. Contact me if you have any questions about how to make that work right.





    Use for paypal payment


    Treasurer@greateriowareefsociety.org

    The treasurer paypal email is treasurer@greateriowareefsociety.org. If sending via paypal, mark to "friends and family" and if there is still a fee, pay it instead of having the recipient pay. The fee can be avoided completely if your fund source is either paypal funds or direct from a linked checking account.

    Remember to bring a flat box or something for your freshly bagged food. It will not be frozen yet. :)

    I might/might-not be able to make the event. I'll be on business travel all week and might not get back until next Saturday. Can I still get the bags I ordered if I can't make it?

    It started at 11 this morning, if you're not there you probably already missed it! But the usual practice is to have someone hold your bags unless you say you don't want them.
