Snacklebox Contest
What IS a snacklebox, you ask?
It's what Karen Parker taught us during her boat trip food planning session at the last boater education day. Whaaat? You didn't go???
We'll share with you here, do not despair.
A SNACKLEBOX is when you turn a (new) tacklebox into a vehicle to carry snacks aboard, of course! You can use any such container, but if you would like to source the one Karen recommends, it's this one:
Snacklebox purchase link
It's the one in the link above, available at Harbor Freight. We just checked - both Silverdale and Edmonds have them in stock, or you can have it shipped for cheaper than driving. Team up with a friend, and order several!
How does it work, you ask? You decide the size of the areas you wish to capture with the little dividers, and then you STUFF the slots with a few of your favorite things. Check out the photo here -> for Karen's own box. She also said there are boxes that are liquid-tight that allow you to load up wetter ingredients, like olives and dips.
What are we planning to do for the Contest, exactly?
We want YOU to create a snacklebox worthy of judging. It can be this exact box size, or some other one. In the afternoon of Kingston Opening Day, we will be accepting your entries at the Club House, and keeping them refrigerated if required.
Around 4 pm (when the bar opens, see?), we will JUDGE your entries. No hard rules for judging have been established, but valuable PRIZES will be awarded, and of course, as always, the bragging rights in the Club are priceless...errrrr... prizeless?
See the right hand side list ->>> for some potential prize winners we could be awarding.
Please register your interest (or lack thereof) in participating, so that we can gauge interest in this event and can proceed accordingly. Thank you!
Oh... and after judging... we will just EAT THEM, ok?
(Your snacklebox box will be returned to you!)
