[SBU Board] Unit Equipment Replacement

[LARRY HOLDREN]

Great ideas.  Maybe Vasa Park has a dumpster we could use for the worst 
tables.

Some of our equipment is in very bad shape.  I'm thinking especially of 
tables with wobbly legs and bidding boxes with delaminated bidding cards. 
These items are annoying to our players and in the case of tables could 
present a hazard.

I suggest we consider addressing this issue this year.  A simple way to 
begin would be to in some way mark tables and bidding boxes that are in need 
of replacement.  This could be done by putting a piece of colored tape 
around a leg of such tables (during set up) and on the side of such bidding 
boxes (in the course of the tournament).  A few extra minutes during a tear 
down would allow us to take an inventory of how many items had been marked 
for replacement.  We could then order the appropriate quantities of 
replacements and discard the bad equipment as soon as the new arrives.  In 
the case of bidding boxes, it might be that some of the boxes are OK but the 
cards therein are shot; perhaps we could explore replacing just the cards in 
these cases.

If there's any interest in this, I could bring a roll of blue masking tape 
to Vasa and we could begin the process this weekend.

Comments?

Thanks,
Tim
