I’m hosting a networking event, and I managed to snag a free venue that fits all of us. Problem is, it’s not a bar. No food or water provided.
My budget is honestly as close to nothing as I can get it, but I also want to provide something to people.
For water, my only idea is to get bottles od water. A water cooler would be nice, but those are expensive.
It’d be nice to have snacks too. I could just get bags of chips, maybe cookies, but I don’t know how much I need to cover ~100 people. If anyone has ideas or experience, please let me know :)
What time of day is the event, and how casual/formal is it?
7pm to 10pm, and it’s casual. We’re just there to catch up and meet new people.
That late means you don’t have to worry about a meal, snacks are fine. A discount warehouse is your best bet here. Get a couple of trays of cookies, some large bags of chips, stuff like that.
