[fudcon-planning] #64: Need to determine alcohol arrangements for FUDPub

#64: Need to determine alcohol arrangements for FUDPub -------------------------------+-------------------------------------------- Reporter: rbergero | Owner: rbergero Type: Task | Status: new Priority: blocker | Milestone: Tempe 2011: FUDPub logistics complete Component: FUDCon Tempe 2011 | Keywords: na-meeting -------------------------------+-------------------------------------------- We will likely be using Pourmasters for FUDPub (per approval at upcoming meeting). The proposal is for them to provide the following, for a period of 5 hours (or less), at 3.25/person attending, with 2 bartenders: Complete Beverage Service: Bartender(s), Bar(s), Coke, Diet Coke, Sprite, Bottled Water, Tonic & Club Soda; Orange, Grapefruit & Cranberry Juice; Margarita Mix; Lemons & Limes; Ice; 9oz & 12oz Plastic Cups; Napkins; Stir Sticks; Plastic Tubs; Basic Bar Supplies. (Note that this is a good deal for all involved, since buying a bottle of can of coke from ASU catering can run $1 each and up.) Contact info for pourmasters: Use the phone number on their website, pourmasters.com. Our contact is Dave, the owner, dave at pourmasters dot com. Gratuity is not included. We can opt to either have tip jars, include a flat 20% gratuity, or pay them gratuity in full on day of service. Invoice will be sent approximately one week before FUDPub, with option to pay via card or check. Needs to be paid, if not in advance, on day of service. Pourmasters is already on file with assorted campus departments (catering, ASU PD) with the appropriate insurance information. With this service, we can provide the alcohol. Dave gave me an approximation of how much alcohol we would need for an event with 200 people. Vodka: 4 1.5L bottles Rum: 2 1.5L bottles Gin: 2 1.5L bottles Bourbon: 2 1.5L bottles Tequila: 2 1.5L bottles Scotch: 2 750ml bottles (possibly 2 different kinds). Beer: 10 cases of beer (24 bottles/case). He recommended 3 or 4 types. This will probably be a fun battle to choose. :) Wine: 2 cases of wine (recommends 12 bottles each of white and red, which seems a bit much based on our demographics, but we could always return unopened alcohol.) Estimated costs coming soon. We have two options: We can either pay for all the alcohol - or we can round up the people who want to drink alcohol and get them to pony up a donation towards that cause (would probably be in the 10-20$ range, nothing extravagant). Any leftover alcohol can either be returned or given to someone who is of age and lives in the local area. :D -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/fudcon-planning/ticket/64> fudcon-planning <http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FUDCon> FUDCon event planning

#63: Need to obtain alcohol permit for FUDPub -------------------------------+-------------------------------------------- Reporter: rbergero | Owner: rbergero Type: Task | Status: new Priority: blocker | Milestone: Tempe 2011: FUDPub logistics complete Component: FUDCon Tempe 2011 | Keywords: -------------------------------+-------------------------------------------- Need to obtain alcohol permit for FUDPub from ASU Campus PD. This needs to be done at least 14 calendar days before FUDPub. Permit will need to be displayed on-site at the event. Some general information: The application requests information about various matters, including: the type of event, number of attendees, how much liquor and/or beer the sponsor is planning on serving, how much food is going to be provided, and whether the server of the alcohol possesses a current liquor license. The reverse side of the application provides information on the required types and levels of insurance coverages. If an event is to be held at the Memorial Union, the request must be submitted to the Director of the Memorial Union for approval, prior to submission to the ASU Police Department. Events held at other University locations must be approved by the applicable dean or director. Other information can be found here, including links for the form: http://www.asu.edu/counsel/brief/alcoholfaq.html -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/fudcon-planning/ticket/63> fudcon-planning <http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FUDCon> FUDCon event planning

We should wait as long as possible to do this, but no later. ;-) Really, that's around a week or so before the event, it doesn't need to be the night before. What has worked well in previous FUDCons is to make sure each badge includes a marking for the attendee's indicated vegetarian status (V, or VV for vegan), and their shirt size. When that's printed right on the badge, it makes check-in at the registration desk super-easy for everyone. Another marking or format can delineate pre-registered people versus late registrants. That can help with some of the swag giveaways and making sure that everyone gets what they expect. -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/fudcon-planning/ticket/29> fudcon-planning <http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FUDCon> FUDCon event planning

They would like to bring the prospectus information, if possible, or at least some ideas for line items that could use sponsorship. One of the best candidates for this is the cost of bandwidth ($2500) at the hotel. -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/fudcon-planning/ticket/48> fudcon-planning <http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FUDCon> FUDCon event planning
