Current Entry: Conglomerate Lunch
The quintessential Winter Camp meal, this is the traditional luncheon on December 31. It had been known as the Survival Lunch at Winter Camps II and III. The main dish at this lunch is, of course, Rand Stew, a concoction including leftovers from many previous Winter Camp meals. Apples traditionally accompany this fare, along with any food that hasn't yet been eaten at camp. In a shocking departure from tradition, this meal was canceled at Winter Camp XVIII in favor of 4-Way Volleyball played in a light rain as time pressure which had been building throughout the weekette finally extracted a toll. While only one previously scheduled event had been canceled, when the choice came down to food or fun, folks chose to play. At Winter Camps XXIX and XXX, the meal became the Conglomerate Dinner and was served one day earlier. At Winter Camp XLI, the only beef served at camp was at this meal.
