Seems that friends could simply pick times and leaders without requiring legal intervention. But that's not my area of expertise so maybe not.

I'm just saying that for members who can only visit every few years or maybe once ever a tiny bit of organization helps maximize the experience I think. Also for those that can't stay at the Stoop it's difficult to know when and where you're going each day unless you literally camp out there all day. We chose to stay at another hotel so the inevitable baby crying wouldn't bother the group, but in future years others (like Tom since he'll be driving the RV) will probably experience the same issue. So something worth considering I think.

I had a great time and everyone was absolutely welcoming, helpful, and great with the girls. I'm just offering a few thoughts as a new guy to the event to try and make it even better.
