Subject:campout presidents day instead of MLK...
From:Matthew Pollard
Date:Mon, 3 Dec 2001 16:49:29 -0800

After much consideration, i think that moving the Field Springs Campout
from jan 19-20 to the presidents day weekend- feb 16-17. There are two big
reasons for the change:
1) it would have been a weekend after the Un-Superbowl and it is unlikely
people will want to go both weekends
2) daylight hours: mlk weekend- 7:24 am to 4:34 pm versus presidents day
with 6:49am  to 5:15pm

we run the risk of poorer snow though. Any thoughs?

cheers
matthew
