Organizing a Spring Foray Memorial Day weekend) can be formidable task, especially for newbies; however, it is manageable and can even be an enjoyable group effort if you know what to do. The biggest worry is “Have I overlooked something?”. It helps lot to have attended a Foray, but even with this experience, you will soon find many little things that attendees are not aware of. This set of documents aims to alleviate these concerns, to avoid some pitfalls and to avoid investing a lot of effort “reinventing the wheel” for each foray. In utilizing these documents, it is important to realize that “one size does not fit all” , so adjustments or or fine-tuning is needed for each foray. General advice- talk with previous organizers and look at previous foray documents. Also, this foray organizing protocol is a work in progress, so please help to improve it. Indeed, many have already contributed to it. At the same time, it is important not to ge overly detailed and cumbersome; keep it simple and clear.
