We go to an RV Park every winter.
A "park potluck" is when a potluck or "dinner" is scheduled to be held in the recreation hall. People are supposed to sign up ahead of time. Once in a while, the past owners would do something like provide ham or turkey for Christmas or Thanksgiving, and then the attendees were expected to bring the rest of the food.
So, the residents bring something to the meal - and the people are seated at tables - each table is assigned a number -
then a drawing is held to see which table goes first, second, etc.
Once in a while there are leftovers, but all the "good stuff" is usually gone by the time that the second of eight to ten tables has had the chance to get in line.
