I would be very interested in tryng to organize a meet up in Traverse
City. Mi. It's a nice quie town and if held in Mid June to early July or anytime in the summer.
There are a lot of local festivals to attend besides playing chess. Lot's
of summer sports would also be avabilbe at that time. Many fine places to eat and drink.
If there is enough interest, rooms could be reserved in advace(it is our
busy touist season) and I am sure I can find a place to meet to play chess.
Or if you are interested in winter activities we have snow from mid November to March.
