Also with regards to sausages, we need to have some final numbers by this weekend so I can get the order in with Cavicchi's and bring them out the spice mixture.

Currently we have 25 ordered....should we say order 40-45 and sell some the day of? I know this was done in the past for about $3-$4 per sausage/bun.

In the past we've gotten ice the morning of from various pubs that were friendly to use. Their machines had enough time to make more ice for the afternoon so it wasn't an issue for them. Does anyone have time to call around to places Brewnosers frequent? We need about six coolers full and a few people with a vehicle to pick it up the morning of Hoptoberfest.

I may or may not make the fest but will take 4-6 uncooked sausage.

Only if this is doable. Feed people before you save sausage for me.

Not a problem, I’m ordering a bunch extra for another Oktoberfest and can tack yours onto my amount no problem.

Never! Food is priority! haha

So with Sandy's added 4-6 links, that has us at around 30.

What are people's thoughts if I order say another 15 sausages? For a total of 45? Or should we make it an even 50?

Like I said I'm going to grab the spice/hop mixture this weekend so I need a rough idea in terms of how many ingredients to pick up.

Thanks!

Thanks Tim!

Also if people want that are attending want to think about bringing some snacks, appies, sides, condiments since we have the sausages and buns taken care of.

One week to go! Cam is arranging sausages and Kevin is bringing some ice. We'll still need more ice. I can provide a few coolers for anyone who knows of anther place we can pick some up.

Who's running the social media for Brewnosers? I don't mind advertising it a bit more broadly this year in hopes of attracting more people.

For Brewnosers twitter talk to chalmers or Liverdance. As for other advertising we can get chalmers post it this Friday on the ACBeerBlog

I’ve still got no response from Ladies Beer League as well.

I think the main thing left is the gather up the ice. I can donate two coolers as well.

Ok folks I'm getting together the ingredients for the sausages.

I'm going to ballpark between 10-11lbs (around 50-55) sausages if that doesn't sound like enough please let me know I can add more but would like to know sooner than later.

I'll put in the order with Cavicchi's by the end of day today.

Thanks!

ok people...4 days out.....

We need more ice volunteers to step up! We should start contacting some local places sooner rather than later!

I'd tackle this but will be grabbing sausages and buns that morning.

Hey guys,

In the name of producing beer I have to back out this weekend. I’ll still pay and grab those sausages if there’s extras.

Sad I’m gonna miss it

Bummer Glen! I'll total up the cost of the sausages for each person once I get the bill from Cavicchis.

Looks like we lost a bunch more kegs with Glen's departure.....will we still have enough with our current list?? lol

Heard back from the Ladies Beer League and they are going to send out the details to their members as well as spread the word via their social media! They are also going to ask around if any members have any restaurant connections that could fill some coolers with ice on Saturday AM...will keep everyone posted.

OK folks so the bill is for the for sausages and buns, we are looking at a cost of $2/sausage+bun.

I've update the sheet to reflect the amount owing for tomorrow. Ideally if you can have exact change or send me an e-transfer that would be appreciated.

Any e-transfers can be sent to cameron.rl.mckellar@gmail.com

Also what are people's thoughts on selling the sausages+buns for $4 tomorrow for those who want purchase them at the event? This seems to be around the cost advertised in the past.
