Here is another idea to increase participation in IOLI (and other)
conferences.  I expect most of us do the majority or our lacemaking in the
cooler months, so could we consider holding conferences in the off-season
months of April, May, October or November?  Yes, schools and universities are
in session but it seems using school classrooms. cafeterias, and dormitories
is not a popular idea.  In off-season months those us of “a certain age”
are usually free of competing holiday activities and visitors.   Perhaps
hotels would offer better deals, at least on the rooms ; not sure about
airlines.  Something to think about....
