[Jamo]

Been to more than a few events over the years...various SAACs and Flings as well as regional stuff.

The very best events I have attended were the various Bashes in Reno-Sparks which were ramrodded by Duane Cooney. The CH1s have been damn near perfect as well.

The reason: KISS

When you start trying to micro-manage every damn minute of the day(s), it becomes more like work trying to keep up with the schedule/route, etc.

Some of the best times have been at the motel parking lots at the early Flings, and the casino parking garage at the Bashes. Not to say that cruises or track events aren't a big part of the fun...they just need to be balanced with some free time.
