please everyone? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif) where did that come from? until the steering committee determines a location and the event dates people can't plan for it. figure out the specifics and then folks can make up their minds. holding it on/near the nev/cal border is pretty convenient for you. just sayin'…..

Kevin,
I don't think you understand. Until today, Mark and I were the 'steering committee.' We did determine a location and were very close to picking dates. We are happy to step back and let other people plan and execute this.(we don't have time, but no one else stepped up) Several people have stepped up in this thread and said that they would help. So far, only Steve has posted in the planning forum. So, there is no 'steering committee.' Unless you know of one I don't? If people want to plan it they can pick the location. If you don't like the location they pick - don't come. Either you are in on the planning (in the planning forum not here) or you are a potential participant. I doubt the SeaHawks coach was listening to the fans yell suggestions as to what to do. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

As for it being pretty convenient for it to be near the California Nevada border, what do you expect? If this is left to Mark and I to plan, we will have it where we can control the variables. Wouldn't make much sense for me to plan an event in Seattle would it? I don't usually go to the events that aren't convenient to me either. I understand. But I also don't try to tell the people planning those events how they should do it and where they should have it. My choice is to go or not go. Last year the event was in the Dalles(?). I knew I couldn't go because I had to go to the Philippines. No choice. I still supported the event by registering and paying. I didn't try to get Mark Whitesell to change the dates so I could go, I didn't try to get him to move it to Reno so it would be closer to me.

Once again, thank you to those of you who have stepped up and said you would help. Contact Steve by PM and he will tell you the password to the Planning Forum so you can have input.
