Pennsic 49?
Mon Apr 20 09:29:00 EDT 2020
Pennsic War plans to announce Go/NoGo by May 15. (This was apparently posted about a week ago, but I don't check their website daily.)
There are so many factors to consider, including
If there's no Pennsic this year I'd be able to go to
baitcon.
Or the situation in August (or June(?), when people need to decide/deposit) may be such that no one is thinking of going anywhere.

Pennsic 49 has been postponed from July 24 - August 9, 2020 to July 30 - August 15, 2021.
(One of the choir directors sent out an email.)
None of us can say this was a surprise.
Too soon, of course, to know about Baitcon. But it's hard to see how that (i.e. bringing people together from a wide area, like Boston, NYC, DC, etc; mix well; send back home) could be a good idea either, even if things are more relaxed by then (2nd weekend of August).

There are so many factors to consider, including
- the course of the pandemic (national, regional, local),
- state/local decisions/guidelines,
- domestic/international travel restrictions,
- the availability/staffing of local suppliers (EMS, tents, golf carts; porta-potties, camp store),
- whether the people who live there want 8,000-10,000 visitors,
