Need help from former shoebox swap planners!
I am preparing to co-host a shoebox swap in the end of July for a few friends (we're thinking fairly small scale... maybe 10-20). I'm wondering if anyone who has already planned something like this could give me any tips or advice. Particularly:
* How much time would you plan? I'm thinking we'll offer two different project catergories (one card and one 3-D item) that people can participate in. I was thinking I would allot 20 minutes per project - does that sound ample? Then an hour for dinner and breaks, and 20 minutes "wiggle room".
* What do you do about food? We'll be there over dinner, so I was thinking we would include about $5 in our fee to provide pizza and beverages... have everyone bring a snack to share?
Thanks for your help!
