The past 2 years is all I know about:
Bob would make the announcements at the morning seminars about the lunches and ask people to bring food up to the tables there (near the main campfire) by each Saturday morning.
One Saturday was chili. There were cans of chili, beans, corn, etc, and pre-cooked hamburger, pre-sliced onions, peppers, spices, that kind of stuff. People contributed paper towels and fuel and pots and tables and garbage bags and utensils. (I think Peter and Bob contributed quite a lot in that regard.) Peter and lots of other volunteers set up a prep and cooking area and somehow it all got turned into about 4 or 5 steaming pots of various types of chili. Others brought cornbread, crackers, chips, dips, veggie sticks, sauces, etc. It wasn't organized as to who should bring what; it just seemed to work out.
One Saturday was soup. Same format with lots of veggies and noodles and goodies.
Lunch was served in a buffet line, about 2 pm as I recall. Everyone brought a chair, bowl, spoon and a drink of choice.
On a different day, one couple hosted a potato bake at their camp and people brought toppings of every sort.
The sun was down by 6 pm, so no group dinners were held that I know of, but the main campfire was a friendly gathering place every night for many. Bob contributed quite a lot of firewood, and others also brought some.
