I apparently need to volunteer myself for some stuff. *eyes Logan evilly* I'd like to herald on Friday. I'd like to help out at Troll. I'd like to sign up for a commonly-hated time for Courtesy Patrol. As well as, I would like to be involved in running the assassin's tourney again, and apologize for the fustercluck that the Slave Auction was (despite a VERY successful outcome thanks to Sir Logan and William for their massive patience with a air-head squire, ie, me.) In any case, please just let me know where I can fit it. It's part of my Squire trials, so I would really like to sign up asap so me and Logan know what to expect. Thanks for making this such a fantastic event, guys. It really came together. <3

Full Moon (easier to find camp sites, better night fighting, etc.) April 18, 2011 May 17, 2011
Holidays (to plan around) April 24, 2011 (Easter) May 8, 2011 (Mother’s day) May 30, 2011 (Memorial Day)
Long Range Forecast April Temp: +3 above normal (70 High, 46 Low) April Precipitation: -20% (3.79 normal, 2.84 projected) May Temp: no change (76 High, 53 Low) May Precipitation: small change (4.81 normal, 5.05 projected) April would have higher temperatures than normal, but less chance of rain.
Weekend Dates for April/ May March 31-April 3 April 7- April 10 April 14- April 17 April 21- April 24 (Easter weekend) April 28-May 1 (Finals week CMSU 05-02-> 05-06, UMKC 05-02-> 05-06) May 5- May 8 (Mother’s Day)(Finals MU 05-06-> 05-13 OU 05-12 05-09-> 05-13 MSU05-07->05-13 KSU 05-09->05-13) May 12- May 15 May 19- May 22 (Finals Week CC 05-16->05-19) May 26- May 29
May 12-15 would interfere with as few Finals as possible, but would create late arrivals on Friday. April 14-17 would avoid Easter and all finals.
(edit: looked like a wall of text)

This is what I've found for possible dates. Rhia, if I've forgotten anything that you'd found; please let me know.
Tenitive date thus far is April 28th- May 1st, but is subject to change. What works for yall? April 14- April 17 looks the best to me (and it means DT doesnt have to change dates).

Khyn, that's a wonderful set of research for the best all around date. Kudos to you good sir!
April 14th-17th is right up my alley too. I love having the full moon out over that campsite, it makes everything that much more ambient.

I'll do a quick straw poll at Dominion this Sunday (And if anybody else would be willing to do something similar at your practice this weekend and get those to me) and see what is looking the best to people as well but my personal preference is April too.

Jeez Ducky, I can't sleep in on my 1 day off? Yes I've gone ahead and set the date as April 14-17th. It's going to be updated on the website and we're actually shooting for pre-reg to be open before Oct. The ball is rolling on this.

I'm glad that the date info works for everyone.
Now we just need a 19 page thread talking about it on the national boards!
