The Jeep guys have found a similar problem with a large country and enthusiasts spread far and wide, they have had Jeep Jamborees in out of the way locations that are kind of the same distance away for everyone.
What we need to know is where is the "Blitz Centre of Gravity" of Australia? Corowa has served well as it is fairly central to the south-eastern capitals (particularly Melbourne), but it does put the Queenslanders at a disadvantage. WA Blitzes are virtually never seen in the east, and understandably so.
So where should the gathering take place? Somewhere further north of Corowa to be amenable to the Qld'ers, or in SA to accomodate the distance for the Sandgropers (Woomera?)? Do we go for a midpoint (Ganmain?), or the place of maximum Blitz saturation (Yass?).
