    Don't move the PNW FJ 2020 to Labor Day weekend

    Ignoring the issues of Holiday Weekend reservations and highway traffic volume for a moment.    Most holiday weekend campers are families and infrequent campers.
    A T@B Event filling a high percentage of any campground during a traditional family outing weekend is unkind to the RV/Camping Community.

    Back in my Puget Sound boating days,with young children, Holiday Weekends were a big family adventure and finding our planned destination marina full of a Boat Club (most of whom were retired couples) was always a huge disappointment.

    Plain and simple, I don’t travel on holiday weekends. EVER. Nothing about it is fun due to the crowds. I predict you’d end up with lower attendance because people can’t get sites as easily. Plus the traffic and ferry volume is insane, it just isn’t worth it to me.

    My 02c,  I had problems getting a site with the group for this last one, and I didn't dilly dally too long.  It could be a real problem getting sites incorporating Labor Day.  For Olympic Peninsula locals, travel won't be much of a problem, but for everyone else it will be.
