I would like to attend the Nats more often, but dragging the wife to the deep south in the middle of summer just isn't going to happen. Any chance of holding it in a cooler time of the year? Just curious.....................Joe
Joe asked:
Not in the near future. The IPMS/USA Constition and By-Laws requires that the Convention happen in July or August of each year.
It would first require a change to the CBL to have the event in other months.
You can find the entire IPMS USA CBL at

Interestingly, the highest summer temps ever recorded in Chicago and St. Louis are higher than the highest summer temps ever recorded in Atlanta. Atlanta is over 1000 feet in elevation. It's not sweater weather by any means, but since we got air conditioning in 1984 and indoor plumbing in '87, Atlanta can be quite nice in the summer.

I had a summer job in Atlanta during my college days and found the area quite pleasant. It was far better than a summer in Dallas!

Having gone to the US Nats in Dallas, I can only wonder that human life survives there at all. It's a giant dry sauna.

Just keep in mind that "it's a dry heat" as you leave several sq. in. of seared flesh on the bare aluminum next year...
