I know I've been away, but I wanted to mention that if there is a way to find someone to organize snacks, and perhaps someone to sponsor them, I always found them very helpful for the people working in the city who ended up coming in late.
Of course, preferably something more nutritous than cookies and brownies[though tasty]. Not being in the city, I have no idea how much it costs to order those sorts of things down there. I think subway was something like under $100 for assorted sandwhiches[of course, as a vegetarian, I'd suggest egg salad, but I know you don't get a lot of choice on a budget, so whatever fits] I know we always had a few people showing up directly from work, and expecting everyone to focus and then go eat afterward makes it harder to keep people coming month after month.
