We'd need-big plates for dinner
smaller plates for dessert
napkins
cups

serving utensils

Anyone have a big ass coffee pot?

Coffee cups.

We have around 80 or so of each kind of plasticware untensil. A few more might be okay.

If people have big utensils like serving spoons also bring those.

I have some large serving utensils and a biggish cooler for Iced-Tea. No big coffee pot.

Sign me ups for some stuffing and cranberries. I'll try to sneak in some cookies, too!

I had been completely ignoring this thread, thinking it was for peoples in town for Thanksgiving, not for the banquet. Thanks to everybody who cross-posted about it!

I'm bringing fresh cranberry sauce, like 2 gallons of it.

Jules, I can pick up any paper goods you want. Also, I was planning to bring a few bottles of sparkling cider. It is a Thanksgiving tradition for me that I would like to carry over into the AIC. I figure about 4 bottles or so as a nice non-alcoholic choice (which can easily be made alcoholic for those with the right spirits)

Thanks Asaf! I would love it if you'd get cups ( both hot and cold) and napkins. I'll get plates.

I'm assuming we'll have around 50 folks over.

My guess is it will be more than 50.
