    But we have many kilties from all over North America, not just USA.

    Ummm. North Dakota is north of which border? I'm married to a Canadian and trust me, the northern borders of the US are not the end of the world.

    North Dakota is not even north of THAT border.

    (edit: okay okay; NORTH of North Dakota you have the Manitoba Prairies and it's pretty barren but you can still find a pub if you look hard enough. )

    Let me explain: there is a lot of sparsely populated land in the north of north america. Most of the kilties are in the south of Cananda, not all, but most.

    I guess the center of population would be best. Any guesses where that is?

    My guess would be a little further to the north of the middle of the USA.

    Since the Mean center of US population is in Phelps County, Missouri (along I-44) then St. Louis or even Springfield would be the obvious choice!

    I'd go for that, time permiting. Of course, the mountains of Colorado would make a great setting.

    Having attended the first two Kilt Kamps I'm with Ham and Phil and all the rest that suggest on Kruise. Maybe that's too many 'Ks'?
