I think you are right on Ed. Our show is a lot different and one location
works for us. I don't think one spot would work for your national.
Although I do think from what I've read in all the posts about this the
solution is there.
Three sites, east, central and west, which would give you a good number of
people able to drive to the show. Select sites near major airports, hubs I
believe you call them, so that flights that take dogs and large crates can be
used. This may mean a couple of hours driving to get to the show site (like
Perry used to be), but that way you can get the dogs there.
Without the dogs and exhibitors there is no show and no chance of a profit.
Drop all the frills and fancy stuff, get back to making it a dog show. If a
facility is booked for a couple of years at the time you need it then book it
for the first year it's open and work out long term contracts. It may take
some time to get three spots, but as the guy said in a movie once, if you build
it they will come !
Just my opinion of course, but I do have some experience with nationals.
