2009 RIV CCW Are you listening.

Before you go too far with that idea, better check on the cost of
renting that facility for a few days. I think that you will find the
cost to be quite high. BB used to absorb some of that. Also, The
Family of Friends were heavily involved in putting it on. Many
volunteers.

I attended my first one where there was around 500 plus coaches
attending. Cost was a major factor in its loss of attendees. When it
was $150, everyone wanted to attend.

Organizing it would not be that difficult, if you could afford it.
