VIR = NASA.
For food, Justin put together a really great coffee stand plan at the NASA autocrosses in Richmond. The problem was, with all of us driving, we didn't have anyone to staff it. This is SUCH a great way to get n00bs without cars (or those who just don't wanna autocross) out to events, helping the club make some money and meeting a ton of great people. People you should know (and by "you" I mean anyone in the club, but officers specifically) include the Cobettos, Jon Felton, Zach & Nichole, and various other NASA crew. But, nobody will know anyone if they don't show to events.
Laura Cobetto had also mentioned a plan to have MM provide food at some track events. Again, we just need to see willing, committed members to come "do it" and it'll be a great fundraiser.
Re: tools -- ask around with alumni too! A lot of us have old tools when we upgrade, or have parents with stuff they're giving away. I think a pretty good set of basics could be cobbled together for not a ton of money. Hell, even a basic Craftsman kit only costs ~$100. Get every alum to chip in $5-10 and you have an MM 'box.
Tent is good. Where is the banner I handed down last year?
