Anybody game to do it in Columbus again?  I'm not in a hurry to steal anybody's turn but I'd host it here every year if you guys asked me to.
I didn't realize you wanted that stress every year, but I would be game to drive 5 hours to see you guys on a regular basis for Nats*

The Red Sox play Tampa Bay a few times each year. I'm sure we could work out a plan if Nats is in Orlando.  ;)

If we were to end up going to Disney World en masse, I'd cast my vote for Epcot. What appeals to you more: standing in line all day to go to Space Mountain and Thunder Mountain, or riding Crash Course over and over again, lots of shopping for the wives, live concerts, international cuisine, epic photo ops, riding Soarin at least twice, and the best fireworks display other than Disney Studios?

3D Muppet movie.

That'll be when we hop to Hollywood Studios. I particularly enjoy the "Honey, I Shrunk the Kids" playground anyway, which is right around the corner from the Muppets.  ;D

You know...I just realized that after getting my license, I can go absolutely anywhere I want! ;D It would be a great experience to have a road trip to Disney World and nats at the same time! I might even be able to convince some family to come, too.


Wait if you go take me with You!!! ::)

Last time I went, I was merely amused by that.  Six years and two kids under two will alter one's perspective considerably.

Actually, I'm not a Red Sox fan..I just want to visit all 30 major league ballparks.

I second Epcot. By far the best park. I like Animal Kingdom also.
Definantly!!!!!!!!!!

Epcot is the worst park....of course I may be biased as the had the "futuristic" section of the park closed for repair when I visited there.
If you stew cranberries like applesauce, then they taste much more like prunes than rhubarb does.

I think we can rule out Oregon, Nevada and Washington. It seems highly unlikely that Natz will be on the West Coast two years in a row.
Agreed.

I think you can rule out Wisconsin
I wouldn't think Ohio would get Nats this year
Thanks, but I think it would be better to hear from the people who actually are high up in the tourney hosting for each state (ie. hosted a State or Regional level tourney there before).

So this leaves us with the following likely possibilities.
States/Provinces holding a State- or higher-level tournament last year...
    CA, CT, GA, IA, KY, MA, MD, MN, NC,  NE, NV, NY, OH, ON, OR, PA, RI, WA, and WI

I believe it is going to be held at North Heights or at least that is what I've been told in Arden Hills,MN

And there you have it!  I'll need a date ASAP so I can arrange some SAP training in Minneapolis...oh, say, around the same time!   ;)

I'm pretty sure that Bill is putting in a bid for it, and he has reserved the space and getting permission from the church, but nothing has been decided yet.

In Minnesota, there is pretty much a guarantee that many will attend. The playgroup(group) here is one of the (if not the) biggest in the US. And it has been 5 years since MN has had it before (not to mention that that was by far the largest nationals ever held), so I don't think it's unreasonable to ask for it again.

From what I heard, it sounds quite probable that Nats will be held here at North Heights. All we need is Rob's okay, which I hope he gives.

Just trying to be optimistic here. :)

+1 Professor Alstad.

Before people get too far ahead of the situation, however, it's worth noting that this is at least the third time Bill has reserved space at the church for Nationals.

We would love to give you the dates, STAMP, but that information can only be released to players who are not retired.

Well, as self-appointed regent for the Redemption Alumni Touring Society, we may decide to convene a meeting at 2010 Nationals.   ;)

As long as it's held before August 25th, I start college around then, and missing it the year it's in my home state is not what I would like to have happen.

Maybe you can ask for a plane ticket to Minneapolis for your birthday then!

it'd be August 14th.

That would be nice, as I have two weddings in August, and they are on the 7th and the 21st.

You're getting married twice? I wouldn't recommend that.

Kids today.
