Cesar Chavez has the benefit that people who haven't been around for a while will look for us there. It's got some great terrain. Recruitment and travel seem to be issues. So, a couple weeks ago, we tried Codornices. Turns out, that Westfinder has started meeting there again on Sunday after a hiatus.
There are certain benefits to Codornices:
Parkwise: less rocks on the ground; a bigger and nicer field (when not closed as it is now for the grass to regrow, or in use by others); a large population that live there (other than the homeless!); people go there to hang out (as in, potential better recruitment), public transit (#65 bus) for the automotively impaired.
Westfinder meets there Sundays, so if we did want to go there, it's probably best we move there Saturdays to avoid stepping on their toes. Plus, we might recruit some of them. And when I say recruit some of them, one of their members has played Amtgard before and was telling me he'd be interested in playing with us more if we were up there. And.... of the ladies Thistledown invited over, one was saying she'd be interested in joining us if we met there.
So I think there's a very good chance that moving to Codornices we'd get a bit more interest.
