I know some of you might think what I'm about to say as bitching...

But here it goes...

I have thought about many different possibilities over past 4 years about this event...
When I decided to do this past event, I've thought of other locations (besides NV). I've literally drove 200-300 miles checking out other locations and deals around US129. But they all had problems.

Here are some of the problems and what I was looking for..

1. Food - Yes, I guess it would be easier for me to let all of you take care of the food.. But to me, it makes more sense for us to stay at a one place and we all eat together. It saves time for you as you don't have to leave the property. Otherwise, I also should care about organize parking.. Hence why I worked so hard trying to make a deal with NV regarding food.

2. Parking - I know we had to split into two parking area.. But you'll be surprised how hard it was for me to find parking for over 100 cars. I've looked at other surrounding lodges and most didn't have 100 single place parking.. Also, Once again, i did not want to mess around with catering food... Its a nightmare as at the end, i have to clean up. Again, one reason why NV was better choice.

Other things to do - Sure bigger city will give you more choice.. But Again, I had to look for a location better than Fontana.. NV provide some activities such as Horse back riding, white water, etc.. I know its not what all of you want to do, but its more than Fontana had offered and some of the stuff you can not do easily from Knoxville. Can't please everyone...

Bottomline, I'm open for suggestions... I am in no mean saying I'm sticking to NV.. But the new place is "NEW", which means, I have to re-plan!! That takes more time away from me and I don't want to switch for small improvements in food, activity, location, etc.. It would also take more effort from the location to try to get me to switch...
