Orma made some good points with respect to not changing the central location of the KR gathering.
The point about not holding it too close to Oshkosh. Since no-one seems to ever see too many KR's at Oshkosh... my thinking is that if the KR gathering were held the SAME week as Oshkosh... perhaps we wouldn't loose that many folks. I don't know about the larger 'netter population, but it is unlikely that I could swing two weeks of Airplane activity a year. I have only two weeks of vacation, and my wife would probably like me to spend at least one of those with her. My wife isn't interested in flying at all, but supports my addiction, so I can swing a trip once in a while to travel all the way from Oregon to Perry OK, as I did one year. It was fun! Now if I were retired... it would be different. But I don't know how many years in a row, I would go to both Oshkosh and the KR Gathering assuming I was a annual attendee... but for me retirement is 15-24 years away. So maybe one year we could consider holding the KR gathering closer to Oshkosh as far as a date. Flying from the Pacific Nortwest is more reasonable as I have to cross a couple of mountain ranges to get there. --- Ross
