David Shealey wondered: > ... there are only 385 rooms! . .Am I missing something here? <
The only thing you're missing is that:
(a) roughly 2/3 of this year's (and presumably next year's) attendees were two-up, so having 550+ people only required about 350 rooms;
(b) as a totally volunteer-run organization, it has been established that around 550-600 attendees is as many as we can effectively handle; and
(c) once you get over about 600 attendees, the choice of "choice" venues in great riding locations with sufficient capacity becomes very limited. Jackson Lodge is a classic example; if we needed a place that could hold 700 attendees, we wouldn't have been able to even consider Jackson.
IOW, the maximum number of attendees is not going to much different next year than it was this year, and Jackson Lodge (including surrounding RV and camping capacity) should definitely be able to handle that. I don't think the exact limit for number of attendees has been set yet, but it won't be much (if at all) higher than this year. And we don't EVER (at least at this point) envision having CCRs with 800 to 1000 attendees.
