[Nfbf-l] Changing the Dates of the Convention

[Dan Hicks]

These months are right in the middle of Hurricane Season. A few year ago
this idea was proposed, but did not float because of the risk of a quick and
expensive cancellation do to destructive weather.

I agree.

I think September or October would be better than January due to the
Holidays being so close.
