Studying for the Bar Exam? What is wrong with your priorities!
It seems at the end of the 2011 Spridgets gathering people were rather iffy on doing another meet in just 3 years, but there was a little more interest in doing one on the five year mark. That would be 2016. Maybe we should start brainstorming on that possibility.
The issue remains ... many spridgets owners are "cheap" people and do not want to shell out big travel expense to attend an event (or can't afford the travel time).
Left coast rules out most all of the right coasters and vica-versa. Central locations rule out some east coasters and some left coasters. There is not enough organizational volunteers to pull off an event on each coast AND then the numbers may still not be strong.
My vote is to have an event central, but have plenty of lead time and promotions and incentives for early registrations.
Early planning helps people make plans for trailering and trip planning.
