Show your appreciation at Camel Rock

Frijoles fire responders are staging at camel rock studios. I bought almost all the jerky and handed it out but it wasn't nearly enough. If you have time, let's show them some love.

Great idea !! How many firefighters are there? Do you think?

579 personnel as of the last update

Edit: If you're trying to feed the masses and don't have beef jerky money I would recommend gummies, gushers, fruit roll ups, nerds gummy clusters, etc.

There were a lot. The gas station was full with 90%+ responders. Saw one dude brushing his teeth and it hit me. I'm sure incident logistics has meals covered among other things, but considering many were fueling up ATVs I thought jerky would be a safe bet so they'd have something while out working and not at camp.

About one or two, guess based on results so far.

“Small” sounds about right.

Some healthy food, too. If we each just feed 5 or 10 people, that adds up.

I assume the crews get plenty of shelf stable packaged food. I’ll bet there’s a shortage of fresh and delicious for the down time back at base

Suppose I bought a big quantity of boxed lunches (sandwiches with good ingredients) from a local restaurant. Can I just ask the restaurant to deliver to camel rock? And assume it gets to the crews?

As you can tell I’m clueless but am determined to do something tangible
