Hello all,
This will be our first year and though we are bringing a cooler with stuff to make sandwhiches, we are wondering what the food vendor services are like. High priced? Types of food? And also, suggestions on bringing food...we wont be able to cook. I've read that you can buy ice which will help. Suggestions are greatly appreciated. See everyone there!

welcome to the family. lots of good topics on food around here, so i won't start another discussion. just take a look around. breakfast is the only thing i would worry about beyond snacks. there will be vendor breakfast, and plenty of food inside.

We usually just bring sandwich stuff, lots of snacks and instant oatmeal. Eat breakfast and lunch at campsite, then find dinner at vendor. Cuts down on cooking and cleanup. Just need boiled water for coffee and oatmeal. Also, Ice vendors roam around in the morning.

Such a variety. Price wise, not much different than eating out for lunch elsewhere. Ice, last year, was $20/10lb. bag. (Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.)
