Would you like me to post on various other forums to see if there is any interest? (Like we said, "Location TBA")

I carried out a poll on three other forums to see how much interest there was in this event, so we could get an idea of numbers. I only mentioned that it was a picnic event with a walk at the end of September, and I said Location was TBA, but it could have camping depending on where we choose.

My poll was "Would you attend this event?" and the options were

1) Yes
2)No
3)Maybe

Here were my results:

GAGB Forums
Total Members voted: 3 members 
Yes - 100%
No - 0%
Maybe 0%

Some were keen that the venue could have camping (depending on where we choose)

West Midlands Regional Geocaching forum
Total Members voted: 4 members
Yes - 0%
No - 50%
Maybe - 50%

They're not far away, but there was hardly any interest looking at the results.

Emcache (East Midlands Geocaching)
Total members voted: 5 members
Yes - 20%
No- 20%
Maybe - 60%

They are far away, but it seemed like there was a lot of enthusiasm here, with only one person saying No.

Hopefully that will give all of us an idea on the interest for this event, over a wider area.

You should ask on all the different Facebook pages as well. They are proving more popular than a lot of the forums at the moment. Our own FB page GeM ~ Geocaching Midlands has a lot of people on their who use it regularly but aren't members of a forum. I think this is happening more nationally as well.
