RE: [Plug] Potential new meeting place
|
Personally, I'd also prefer a center city location, especially now that it
looks like I'll be working at 20th & market. The conshy location does seem
to offer some great benefits in every way except location though, so it's
worth remembering as I think I could easily make it to Conshy once a month.

I, too, prefer a Center City (or University City) location... we have to
consider that there are New Jersey people that come to meetings, and it
would probably be too much for them to have to go 60+ miles (on the
hypothesis that a typical meeting draw would encompass a 30 mile diameter
range), so we lose that demographic. Population is quite sparse west of
Conshy. Avi's offer is very generous, and great, but we can't over look
the
simple fact that I mentioned...the City is the center of our universe, and
we should keep it as such. I won't be able to make a meeting in Conshy.
Just my 2 cents.
