There was some talk in the Fall Central PA GTG thread about doing one in the spring. I am willing to host. Our land is in Duncansville, PA; 5 minutes off exit 23 of I-99. 1 hour south of I-80, 10 minutes south of US-22, 30 minutes north from I-70/76. I was thinking early April, but that will depend on the winter (if we get hammered with snow, it's a mile walk to get the dozer to plow the road open).
The good:
We have a good variety of hardwood logs, and might even be able to get two equivalent for races.
"In the woods" - don't have to worry about offending the neighbors.
I am hoping to have my mill by then as well.
The bad:
Limited parking - only enough parking for about 20 vehicles (we can make other arrangements if needed).
No facilities - we have a stream and an outhouse. No electricity. If enough people decide to come, I can get a port-a-pot for the weekend.
I have a couple places interested in donating prizes, perhaps have one of the local saw guys show up with some wares as well.
