Two thoughts:

1. We should start thinking about a venue for the fall (or even late
summer - not Labor Day weekend though).

   OK.  Would this be in lieu of the June gathering, or an
   "official" date to combine with an "unofficial" or smaller
   June gathering?

   Regardless of which it is, new concerns come to the fore:

    *Colleges may be in session as early as the last week of August
    *High schools, ditto

   For those of us who attend (or, in a couple of cases, teach)
   this really affects the issue.  For the K-12 crowd, it may be
   affecting the 8 June date as well; I don't know how late you
   go into the summer, but I remember a few 22 June last-days.

   Oh, and aren't most companies' vacation-time calendars based
   on the fiscal year...?

2. The Pirate Game will also happen at Brickfest in July (and Steve
Jackson is more than welcome to come to Brickfest - I hope he does, he
was thinking about it last year - I know he is interested in hooking up
with other AFOLs - his LEGO interests are not limited to the Pirate
Game).

   I was sad he couldn't come to the *last* BrickFest.  But in any
   case we need to start planning how we'll do it this time around--
   if we can hit the ground running everything will be smoother.
   I know that with the size of last year's BrickFest, we're liable
   to start seeing timed events with signups...

   best
