If that was only available ...

Okay, after reading all the messages, I'm going to try to push for the last weekend in April or the first weekend in May. Wish me luck.

How about a permanent date of the 1st weekend in June? That is the only really open date other than the REALLY early April date.

You'll find no one date will work for everyone at all times...and then we'll criticize your decision for the date you choose...and then we'll just make our schedule work and show up.

That being said, the early April date is a tough one for me and I would come to the Fall event instead. 3rd or 4th week of April is fine by me.

thanks for doing this all the same.

I figured that Fontana Village would be fully booked. Of course, staying on top of it is important... and we're ALL BUSY!

I guess Mother's Day weekend is our best window... for now...

June just seems so late but the leaves will be out and when we had the Summer dragon in June 2015, the area was surprisingly not that busy, I think the area is more busy in mid April than it was in June.
April is best but not the first week or two. Since the 3rd and 4th weeks of April are not available, good luck making the decision. LOL

You don't seriously think I pay attention to the griping, do you?
