Current Entry: Alphabetic Banquet
This feast has been served twice, at Winter Camps IV and VII, and provides 26 dishes, one for each letter of the English alphabet. Eric Bollman still brags, years later, of his adventures in preparing a trifle at Winter Camp IV. It was also at the first Alphabetic Banquet that many members learned that "xanthine" means "yellow-colored", as Xanthine Drink represented the letter X. At the second banquet, Xanthine Drink had been replaced by "X-Drink".
