Seems everyone is putting together events and some are falling on top of others. Granted, sometimes - not a lot, but once in a while - none of us have any choice due to a venue/sponsor requesting a specific date.

Thought that maybe if we listed months that have events that have been happening for quite a few years now that it might help others in scheduling.

Not saying that everyone is required to stay away from those long standing events, but it would not only help the promoters but the competitors as well.

Off the top of my head:
January - CT/CT State Chris Gangi
IL/IL State Blaine Middleton

February - NC/Get a Grip Karen Bean (probably having to move to March next year due to AL State

March - TN/Tri State Ray Jenkins
GA/SEC (is the SEC Ranking event going to stay in March?)

May - USAA Nationals ( I'm not certain if it's moving to another month from now on or not)
Unifieds 2012 & 2013 (due to WAF dates)

June - AAA Nationals (moved to August 2012 due to WAF dates so switching with Unifieds)

August - AAA Nationals 2012
Unifieds 2014 ..............................

October - WWC

December - FL/FL State Karen Bean
(always 1st or 2nd weekend of December)

Everyone - please add events that have been long standing that you know.

Therefore I will wait until after Nov.19.

It isn't a long standing tournament, but MN States will always be the last full weekend in June every year. Also Pull for the Hungry is usually in February every year, for over 20 years now (it was in April in 09, 10 tho) and Riverboat Days is always mid-August.
