We did the costco thing this year when we went to DC. We actually filled two plastic totes with granola bars, muffins, nuts, trail mix and brought them as luggage. We kept them in the hotel and made them available each morning and students ate and/or loaded up their pockets/backpacks. I know, the event sites don't allow food.

Only down side of this is if you may have to pay luggage fees. We lucked out and got ours waived. Also, a parent has to go out and find somewhere to buy fresh juice/milk.
