We don't have a food schedule lined up yet, but I am imagining there to be a food table that people can grab food from during the breaks. Around lunch time we'll need to keep maning the table and bringing food in.<div>

<div><br></div><div>Additionally, do you see any issues or problems with this schedule? I haven't yet asked Anna and Wesley to present live (since we also need a date for a commitment) instead of their videos. but, if they agree, that will be nice.</div>
