To help with those attempting to get a head start (like those Nova Scotians), I wish to give an update that as of this time the following locations have NOT BEEN RULED OUT:
Mallets Bay, Lake Champlain
Grand Traverse Region of Michigan
Wisconsin
Thunder Bay, Canada
That is not to say that we won't get more new sites reported this evening, but this is a heads up. Please do not attempt to call hotels and reserve your rooms ahead of time. This makes it difficult for us to negotiate our group rates and drives the cost of the class expenses up too. So far it looks like potential venues have good vacancies now as well.
More around 10PM. If later, it's for a good reason - Trust us!

2106 North American Championships ON for Madison, Wisconsin
Configure

The City of Madison, Wisconsin will be our host for the 2016 DN North American Championships. Green Lake, WI is a back-up site.
Due to a wrestling tournament in the city, the downtown hotel situation is less than Ideal. Please bear with us until Noon Friday so we can work out the best solution for our group.
Scouts will continue to check Lakes Mendota, Menona, and Kegonsa to determine the best ice and launch situation.
So sit tight, drive safe, and tune back in Noon Friday for the Hotel information. Launch information will hopefully be posted Friday night.
