This is my first year at a World Event (hope is not the last time…), parents of some of the kids have been asking some questions in regard to food, beverages, snacks and stuff like that. I have never been there, so I got no idea if the kids can bring their own lunch, or if they can bring their own water or snacks or if everything they will consume has to be bought at the convention center.
Details on the food/drink policies for the Anaheim Convention Center, as well as other important details for the event, are available under the event listing on Robotevents.com: http://www.robotevents.com/robot-competitions/vex-iq-challenge/2014-vex-iq-challenge-world-championship.html#tabs-travel
