[Campus-columbia-staff] planning an event for next semester

There are a few things that should be taken care of before the event.  One
of them is the reminder email - I'm on it.  There's also some prep to be
done with staff - also on it.  :)

Logistics-wise, the are two main things to do.

1)  A last check of the space.  You can see the checklist for that here,
under "Before the event":
https://openhatch.org/wiki/OSCTC_space_checklist
Would it be possible for you to go through that checklist and report back
to the email list, Zack?

2)  Food - we need to make plans to feed students breakfast and lunch.
 Breakfast can either be ordered from somewhere or, more often, we stop by
a place like Dunkin Donuts or a grocery store to pick up
pastries/coffee/juice/fruit.  We need to assign someone to be in charge of
that.  (Any volunteers?)  Lunch needs a bit more forethought, though it's
usually just fine to order a day ahead of time.  Are there food places in
the area that you would suggest ordering from?

best
Shauna
