2. Label and submit one half of your sandwich to the DSS advisory board.

3. Sandwiches will be labeled with the name of submitter, and/or vegetarian, meat, dairy, etc. This can be done at the event.

4. Every participant will get one half of another participant's sandwich submission and keep the other half of their own.

5. One lucky random sandwich half will contain THE GOLDEN TICKET redeemable for the DSS prize package.

6. Enjoy your sandwiches, find the person who's sandwich you've eaten, throw a frisbee, have some fun!

You must bring one full DELICIOUS sandwich (hero, roll, or bread) cut in half. Every participant will trade one half of their sandwich with another Delicious Sandwich Social participant. The kind of sandwich you bring is up to you. One lucky sandwich half will contain the GOLDEN TICKET redeemable for the DSS PRIZE PACKAGE! You have to make the trade to be eligible. If you don’t like your sandwich half we’ll bury it in the woods! Or trade again!

Bring your baseball glove, a frisbee, some balls! There will also be a scheduled game of five-ball! What’s five-ball? Oh, you’ll see! If you don’t have anything to bring you can always run and take some huge leaps!

Come on out to the Delicious Sandwich Social!
Spread the word! The more the merrier!
