>Subject: Trailmix info
>Hello all,
> The final tally for this years National Convention trail mix
> offerings is:
>
>90 bags fruit & nut
>10 bags nuts only
> 5 bags fruit & nut, no almonds (for Dacia)
> 7 bags golden raisens and cranberries (testing new offering for future year)
>
>total: 112 bags @ $4 = $448 - $200 for supplies = $248 profit.
>
> I'm turning over my suitcase containing all the packs, suitably
> identified Sunday afternoon to Rita and LInda, who will take it
> with them to convention.

> Chris, I couldn't use your suitcase - I'm sure it's fine for
> clothing but but it's way too soft to handle 35 pounds+ of trail
> mix. Baggage handlers throw around luggage in less than a gentle
> manner. We can't take the chance that the trail mix bags could be
> crushed or torn during transit so I've substituted one of mine that
> is more resilient.

>Rita, Each category of trail mix is in a separate bag, with a note
>inside describing the contents of that particular bag. I didn't feel
>the need to put a label into the trash bag containing thr fruit &
>nut packs because they so far aoutweigh the other kinds. I've also
>included a note card describing the contents as well as a business
>card with my contact info. The contents card is in a pouch inside
>the inner lid, and there is another business card in an outer
>pounch on the lid.
>Good luck with the sales!
>If you have any questions, give me a call.
>Make sure you tag the luggage at the gate. It's pretty heavy - I'm
>thinking around 30 pounds or possibly more - the suitcase does have
>a handle and is wheeled.
