OK. I have looked through this and other threads, pulled some known conflicting dates and have come up with this summary (using just the weekend days for discussion). Let's use this as a discussion start (well, continuation since ISM and DP have already posted).
Known Bad Weekends
- April 12-13 - Kevin unavailable (MS Walk)
- April 26-27 - Coachella (and I think Susan and I are at a wedding in Oregon, but I am not sure)
- May 10-11 - Disney Cruise
- May 17-18 - Disney Cruise
- May 24-25 - Disney Cruise (and Monday the 26th is Memorial Day)
- June 21-22 - Ken & Teresa unavailable
Requested Weekends
- May 17-18 - Wolf Creek (ISM)
- June 7-8 - King's Canyon Group Site (DP)
Obviously, no individual drives the event, so any one person's absence or requests should drive choices. However, there are a couple of people on the Cruise (DP and GusGus and possibly others that I do not remember), so I would personally request not booking those weekends and Coachella will eliminate a large number of potential campers.
And personally (again - sorry), I would like to accommodate T&K 's (Disneyphile & Frodo Potter) schedule - they could REALLY use this.
With that in mind (accommodating individual unavailabilities), I see the following availabilities:
Possible Weekends
- April 5-6
- April 19-20
- May 3-4
- May 31-June 1 (although this is the weekend after Memorial Day Weekend)
- June 7-8
- June 14-15
- June 21-22
- June 28-29
Let's start by eliminating weekends. If you have a conflict with any of the weekends above, or prefer one of these weekends, post now (let's keep it simple and start with just the weekends and the build the extra days around it). Then we can get it narrowed down to a couple of weekends for voting.
Everyone okay with that?
