I'm not out to start another debate about Nationals, why we're there, and what we should be doing. I think that's something that should be decided on an individual, or team basis. It's clear that some people have no problem with kids going out and enjoying the parks, while others expect them to be there for the competition their entire stay.

But, all in all, no matter how you feel about that, I think moving away from Disney would be a bad idea. If not because the parks are fun, than because the Disney name is recognized around the world.

To continue an analogy, telling a potential sponsor that our Championship even is in Dust Bowl, Kansas doesn't really have much of an impact. But, when you say, "we're the largest non-Disney event held on Walt Disney World property," that sponsor immediately gets an image in their mind that comes much closer to conveying the true size and magnitude of what goes on.

And, not to start another debate, but we're a pretty odd-sized event. We're larger than most scholastic competitions, but much, much, MUCH smaller than a professional sporting event. There aren't too many arenas that would fit this even comfortably. Disney does a good job, and we should stick with it.
