I would still love to volunteer. Please keep me posted.

After reviewing the results - and btw a very nice set of questions - it seems if we just keep VCF at IA and rename it to the VCF Annual CRT Repair Festival, make everything CRT repair classes, get a burrito truck, maybe a keto truck and hold everything outside in the rain, we'll have an amazing festival on our hands!
Andy, April Fool's Day was *last* week ;)
Can we do that?
I appreciate any feedback whether it is feasible or not. I'd rather know what people are thinking than to never know. Making an anonymous survey allows for honest feedback. We will do what we can to improve the show with the volunteers and resources available. There is also a lot of stuff that people don't know about what we have tried already, like get a food truck. We have tried to get a food truck and 12 different companies were unwilling or unable to come. We have found that there are certain restrictions in Wall Township that make it harder for them to operate in the town. Bottom line lunch trucks are not willing to take the risk of not making enough money on an event they don't know anything about. We have even tried incentives to pay them to come to no avail. So we will sell our own food which is frozen food reheated in the microwave. This requires a minimal food license, but very easy to do. InfoAge did this 5 years ago and made a good chunk of money. We have Sea Cadets and their parents to help with this. We did this successfully at the swap meet and the food was decent!

p.s. thanks jeff and rickL (not sure if he helped with this survey) nice set of data
Yes. Rick is an expert at writing surveys and does this for a living. He also has never attended our show so he is objective at this point. The survey was our first attempt so we will refine it as we go along. Rick will also get a better idea of questions that we should ask to help improve the show as he sees the show and the audience.
