As some may recall, I ran a survey for Eastern States at one time. What that immediately confirmed was that people are not interested to drive more than a day to a two day (weekend) rally. Now, we would take the 2000 mile 5 day run to Tucson, but as there is the expected arrival of a granddaughter about then and someone really wants to be in town when that happens. That even over rules the fact that we might be running a break-in about then. This is a good try on Kim's part.

There is another gotcha that we have learned all about when trying to set up rallies. Cost is a big issue. Kim is trying to keep costs down and that is why some of us got to share a space at Elkhart and Kim has the problem of size too. Not a lot of places can manage a 200 coach event.

Ever been to a 500+ event like an FMCA thing? It is a zoo and they are never cheap.

I still think the there is a future for virtual local tech sessions. We are now doing video effectively enough to do a webinar of so many things. If someone does not chose to join from their home, they could be part of a semi-local gathering. While the cost of doing this was never in Eastern States' budget, the cost has come down so much that it may now be a real possibility. This could allow audience interaction that is what makes the tech at the conventions so interesting.
