Hey Sri,
Speaking personally, I would be comfortable with this kind of budget for coffee/water, especially given all the new sponsors that came in!
Yes, I think one of the stripulations for the board is that we would have to fundraise it ourselves and clearly we have done that. It would certainly be less hassle for me as the person who has to drive around and do this stuff. I reckon there is only two of us who have cars here. :D
However, that still leaves out the BoF days and it would not include croissants which we should have at least for Tuesday.
So as long as we have a plan for those too, I'd be OK with the expense.
I'm okay not serving during the BoF days. I don't think we are going to have a huge turnout for those. Instead, I'm okay with providing a table with a couple pitchers of water and ice on those days and maybe doing a group coffee event. There are several local coffee places close by.
Croissants are only for Tuesday. Croissants are 1.60 bulk.. we could provide a smaller batch of them per day.
Thanks,
sri
