Make sure you have hand wash available. I don't want Potties and finger sandwiches next to one another without soap.
please don't use antibacterial soap. It's just creating stronger bacteria. Also make sure the soap is earth friendly.

I'd like the lemonade stand to take prepayments via the web, this way I won't need to carry cash.

Hey...I don't want you to start talking to Raul about making a mess with thingies. If you don't touch them or eat them, there won't be a mess.

That said, I don't think that my concerns about having Starbucks on the property are being adequately addressed.

Who's in charge of this event? I am concerned about my concerns.
I am also concerned about your concerns...

I can tell you now that Starbucks "corporate" won't be on site.

However...my night courses on being a barista are going well...

Venti Latte, 4 pumps Vanilla at 140 degrees FTW!!

I'll second that. Plus, the S's cupholders aren't "Dragon" friendly anyway

Ok...airgate readies the following items...

Starbucks coffee
Dunkin Donuts coffee
Assorted variety of Dunkin Donuts...um, Donuts
Assorted variety of messy pastries from Starbucks
Anti-Anti-Bacterial Soap
Styrofoam-free Cups for Lemonade Stand...

Ok...cost on these items comes to...

Starbucks Coffee, 2x 12oz bags @ $38 each = $76
Dunkin Donuts Coffee, 1x 40oz bag = $42
Dunkin Donuts Donuts, 6x Dozen @ $5 doz = $30
Messy Starbucks Pastries, 3x Dozen @ $10 doz = $30
Anti-Anti Bacterial Soap, 4 bottles @ $2 each = $8
Styrofoam Free Cups, 6oz, 100 Recycled (10% Post Consumer) @ $110 per 50qty = $220
Lemonade Stand from Amazon.com = $75

Total cost for "fru-fru" budget = $481.00

Divide that by the 123 drivers coming and we are at only $3.91 per driver.

Divide it by the number of DRIVERS AND PASSENGERS...we are only at $2.51 per person.

A bargain!!

And I think we could raffle the Lemonade Stand during Saturday night's banquet...
