[penguicon-general] Penguicon 7: May 2-4, 2009?

[chuck child]

So, what I have read so far:

Reasons for making the date Earlier:

Interferes with Finals for some schools.
Possibly into spring wedding Season.
Interferes with the beginning of Walleye Fishing Season on the LP.

Reasons for Keeping that date:
Avoids Easter.
Avoids Passover
Avoids Notacon
Avoids Finals week for Local Schools.

Let me throw another into the pot. . . And wethere this is pro, or con, is a
matter of oppionion.

Overlaps Beltane.
