I don't think there's a better place on the web to ask this question,
But, "How many shoots where your total cost of attendance from beginning to end exceeds $500.00, do you attend?"
I am willing to attend 3. 1 spring, 1 summer, and 1 early fall.
I don't see myself attending a winter shoot, nor more than 3 (of this type) during the other seasons, all well spaced due to logistics.
When I add in the other fundraisers, and regional "Pop in for a steak" shoots, I max out at a total annual number of a dozen or so.
This is just a marketing type question to spur some conversation.
