I think it will be hard to get started. Vendors want to know what attendance will be. How does one show how many customers there will be to start off ? I put on a shoot in Mi every spring. There are two more clubs with in a hours drive and we each do our shoot in different months - April, May, and June. I would much rather drive a hour, shoot, visit a bit, and go back home. It's so much cheaper than going for three or four days. I did go to the Southern once and it was very nice, but what I spent doing it I could do all three of our shoots and still have money left over. Zapper is giving you some very good advice. It'll be an up hill battle - good luck.
