Thanks Bill. Comments and suggestions are welcome. If you have a critique, please share as well. It will all be factored in to our decision. I will say we often find ourselves choosing between a few less than perfect options.

Bill:
I believe what you are recommending was done for June 2021. The Annual Meeting and Banquet in September 2019 was on Saturday night, but shifted to Friday night for the June 2021 meeting, as an accommodation, given the Saturday events at Hausemann's.

Well, we’ve tried to hold the Annual Meeting Banquet in geographically central locations like Louisville thinking because of the location the attendance would be better…. Didn’t really make any difference.
No matter where it’s held there will be folks who either can’t attend or won’t attend. But one thing we have learned is thet attendance will be very low unless it is held in conjunction with a major shooting event. . .

65 attendees would probably be the average. 40 would be low, 75 would be on the high side. However, in the days of Pintail Point we had 100+.

Picking a location for the Annual Meeting has always been our biggest challenge. So many factors to consider, with very limited choices to choose from. Every Board has struggled with it. But you can't please everybody, so you just have to do the best you can. I haven't missed an Annual Meeting in the last 20 years. From Ohio to Rhode Island, the Eastern Shore to Las Vegas. And I've enjoyed every one of them.

Vegas was a lot of fun and the highlight was seeing a lot of members out there who don’t make the east coast events. Planning from a distance was a huge challenge there and there was no shooting.
