I'd love to go. The SDC would make a great venue.

Jack makes good points about winter driving.

I think that an official district event would have more chance of success than an off-season during the (high) school year. To go so far, most teams would have to take time off school. That might be easier to get authorized if it was for an official event. Even a one-day Saturday event would require travel time and missing school on Friday.

A summer event would be nice, but you'd probably run into the problem of many volunteers being away from college for the summer.

You'd have to time it around other events going on in the area, so there would be enough hotel space.
