Default BR III...yes, that's III
UPDATED THREAD: https://www.thevettebarn.com/forums/o...on-thread.html

Just FYI...

NCM has us blocked off for BR III for 5/23/2013—5/25/2013.

It's not on their web calendar of events, yet. That won't happen until we start building the calendar.

It's still early, so you won't be seeing a lot posted about it. Feel free to make some suggestions here about things you'd like to see added, removed or left on the calendar.

Well, for starters, The Hampton needs to keep better track of their luggage carts.

ugh...still recovering, bills to be paid.....feeling weak.....

i'd say having one 'thing' each day, with the evenings open, so peeps can catch up with friends over a cold drink is a good outline.

Dixievet doing the dinners right next to the gathering spot worked out very well, and i for one would be thrilled if he did that again (charge more next time, 15-20/mouth/night).

Those are the days that the NCM schedules things for us. We add Wednesday and Sunday on our own...but the NCM doesn't generally sponsor events on those two days of the week.

chair massages at the hotel (in meeting room?) wed and thur afternoons for tired and sore types who have just arrived? 15-20 min should take out most kinks. walk in basis, maybe have someone there 3-7pm, with ability to hang longer if demand is there?

Whatever happened to switching the venue and date year to year?

And by no means is the date locked in either. When we saw that CF lost their NCM event, it made complete sense for us to seize that opportunity, which is exactly what we did.
Let's face it, the bulk of CI regulars were already accustomed to being there that weekend, to change the weekend would be unwise.

There has been no talk of BRIII just yet, but you can bet it will be a heavily-discussed topic at this year's event.

My personal opinion is that it should move to the middle east coast area next year, because after all, that is the location of the barn this forum was named after. (yes, the barn is a real place located in Suffolk, VA).

Of course we will try our best to do what most people want, so maybe it'll be elsewhere, it's anyone's guess at this point.

Pick any weekend between April and October, and there bound to be a conflicting event happening somewhere, and someone with personal schedule conflicts. That's just the way it is.

But as you noted, it's good reason not to keep it the same every year.
