National Camp Commander

Since we're planning so far ahead why not go big? Can this be a XK-Forum sponsored event featuring guest representatives from sponsored businesses like 4xGuard, etc.? Can we pick a place that will allow us to reserve a private space just for us and maybe go even bigger and rent a stage and put some entertainment on there like a band or DJ? Can we maybe talk to Jeep and have them come out and showcase some promotional material? Seems like we would have enough time to plan something of this scale. I could vouch for finding the entertainment since I'm in the industry as my hobby.

Yes, XK-Forum can sponsor the event and would be glad to regardless of location. I really think that is we look at Colorado we have more space and better trails. I also think it woul dbe easier to get corporate sponsors for an event like that over a park setting but do not know that as a fact.

Hmm, I wonder how far of a drive would it be from Chicago to Colorado.

Actually I just looked and it's about an 18 hour drive from Chicago to dead smack middle of Colorado. What city is this park in?

The place we go is in Silverton. They have over 200 spots so we would all fit, there are hundreds of trails, likes rivers. It is close to MANY tourist spots, white water rafting, narrow gauge train, museums, historic towns, Telluride gondola ride...

The Camp manager told me he would set up a big tent for group events.

Holy crap! Of course it had to be on the opposite side of Colorado, that makes it a 22 hour drive from Chicago! lol. Hmmm, might have to make a stop along the way for sleep. I was hoping for more like 16 hours then we can make it in a day and was already thinking of going sometime in October of this year to check it out.

I think if we visit one of the existing events it loses its allure of a National event IMO. It's like were attending the west coast event which will be cool and I hope to attend one soon. But the drive from the east coast is pretty rough and would take me almost two days to get there taking breaks for the family. That means I need four days of vacation time just in travel time to and from the event. So IMO we need to try and make this a central event for all to enjoy equally. We have memebers all the way in Florida thats one heck of a drive for them as well.

After the list is completed.....or large enough, we need to check each idea to see if it could handle the traffic. But worry about that later. Focus on the list.
