Camping 2007

We went camping; Matt was in charge.

Where

Sites W10 and W11 have been reserved at White Lake for June 8-10.

Who

• Matt Horan
• Mike Burns
• Rich Herold
• Ted Bowman
• Chessie

Money

Camp site

$59 for each site plus $19 for each camper past the fourth.

Since 5 people went, the grand total was $137.

Firewood

$5 * 3 + $2.50 * 6 = $30 (mostly Ted, right?)

Gas

$35 (Matt's Car) + (Rich's car) = ?

Food

$32.08 (Burns) + ? (Ted) + ? (Rich) = ?

Final

Here's one way to resolve this:

cost_per_person = (site + firewood + gas + food)/5

Then each person pays and is paid until their net expense is cost_per_person.

Food

Matt will bring chicken ... not!

Rich will bring burgers and buns ... not!

Ted will bring vegetarian things.

Chessie will bring Smores stuff

One meal Friday

• Burgers

Three meals Saturday

• Pancakes

Miscellaneous Camping Stuff

Mike Burns has found a bunch of camping supplies in his basement but isn't sure what stuff not to bring. Here's the list; make a note if you have an opinion on an item. I only want to bring stuff that people plan to use.

• 1 inflatable raft (two oars, one pump)
• 1 canoe, one or two oars
• 1 kayak
• 2 white fuel lanterns
• 1 car mount for holding four bicycles
• 1 canopy (not sure of the size), held up by tall metal poles (not sure of the height)
• 2 lighters
• 6 boxes of matches
• 1 tablecloth
• 1 can insect repellent (Deepwoods Off)
  • I see no reason not to bring this. 192.168.1.127 19:33, 4 June 2007 (EDT)
• 1 can of white fuel
  • Desired if we bring the lanterns or stove. 192.168.1.127 19:33, 4 June 2007 (EDT)

Kitchen Stuff

Make a note if you have an opinion on an item. These are all camping-durable items that you'd find in REI or the like; it's not stuff from my kitchen. I only want to bring stuff that someone plans to use.

(Update after washing these: I'm not convinced the silverware is REI-purchased; it seems like just extra silverware. Regardless, it's spare silverware that I don't mind getting dirty/destroyed.)

• 1 portable white fuel stove
• 1 metal, forked marshmallow holder/hotdog holder/trident
• 4 pans
  • Four pans are overkill; one will suffice, so long as someone plans to use it. 192.168.1.127 19:33, 4 June 2007 (EDT)
• 1 metal pitcher with a lid
• 1 medium-sized pot with a lid and a wire handle than can be hung over a campfire
  • Could you bring this? i would like this :) - Richard
• 4 large cups
• 4 plates
• 1 spatula
• 1 cookie sheet
  • This has been in the camping kitchen bag forever, and not once do I remember my mom baking cookies in the woods. 192.168.1.127 19:33, 4 June 2007 (EDT)
• 1 large fork
• 2 large knifes
• 1 toaster attachment
  • I don't think we need a toaster attachment (owen)
• 1 measuring cup
• 1 potato peeler
  • and I'm not sure about this either (owen)
• 6 steak knives
• 6 butter knives
  • Seems rather redundant when a steak knife usually works just fine. 192.168.1.127 19:33, 4 June 2007 (EDT)
    • what are we, peasants?
• 8 or 9 spoons
• 8 or 9 forks
• 1 dozen egg carrier
• 1 sponge
• 1 cutting board
