A Gun Dog Forum Event, Maybe?
It would be cool to have a Gun Dog Forum event of some sort. Like a fun trial/hunt/cookout??? It would probably happen here:

Its a plantation in N. GA.
Would you attend?

It would have to be sometime during the summer I would expect, in order for many people to be able to attend. It might be a bigger incentive if it were also planned somewhat around a local field trial.

Grant,
You might want to think of starting regional events or get togethers.
I had a successful one at my old place for another board, we had 46 people show up. A great chance to meet new folks that are as nutty as we are about the mutts. The weekend lasted three days with cookouts dog training at my facility and a whole lot of fun!
I am in Oklahoma, and would be willing to host a training day for anyone interested. We have plenty of land, birds and training doo-dads!

I'd love to, but that plantation is a good 6-7 hour drive from me. Unfortunately gun dog events in the Southeast are all either really far away (closest is usually Walhalla, SC, near the GA-NC-SC border) or it's just too expensive after factoring in the price of the event, gas and lodging.
But I would most definitely be interested in details if something were to be planned.
