ANST - Just a question - Sites

Greetings to you,

It's not that we're not allowed anywhere else.. it's just the way it
happens.  Many events are held at the Canton site because most of the groups
in the Central Region hold their events there.  It also happens that many of
the Kingdom events we've had recently have been at that site.  And it has
many of the amenities us-old-worn-out-weenies require because we're not so
young anymore.  I.E.... trees, showers, flush toilets, electricity and water
at the camp sites, availability of a large Hall for Court and meetings.  (we
are so spoiled)

It depends what group is holding the event and where they want to hold the
event.  It just happens that the Central Region is centrally located (hence
the name Central) to most of the other parts of the kingdom 3-6 hours in any
direction for the most part.  And groups in the Central Region have been
willing to put on Kingdom Events.  Our current King requested that Queens
Champion be held in the Central Region.

However if your group is willing to put on a fantastic event, at a site you
know of, I'm sure you'd get a response and some folks to travel there.  I've
discovered that many time events have a mind of their own.  Provide the
place and they people come out of the woodworks to sponsor parts of it... it
given the opportunity.....kind of like...... provide the place and they will
come.

Hope I explained some of your questions.

> At the risk of sounding like a squeeky wheele, are we not allowed to have
a major event at a location other than Canton?  Now, I like the Canton site,
once I get there.  But, the 6 hour drive is not only long, but the gas eats
a big hole in my pocket book.  I have to buget only a one or so events a
reign at Canton.  I have to admit, Canton is almost the perfect site, but
for the drive.

have no good suggestions.  I remember something said about a site commity
who's job it was to compile a data base for sites that could hold large
events.  Is there not a place, if you triangulate between Bjornsborg, Stepps
and Stargate a place of about equal distance?

there must be a solution to this problem.  We should have the
option/knowlege of centraly located sites to choose from, away from any
state or federal prison.
