I'm not smart enough to make Somewhere's skoolie map work, but where are the main concentrations of skoolies located? Knowing that might help guide location choice. Also, the left coast right coast idea is good--maybe add a USA Central as well. Jack

not sure that is really relevant, as I would only be interested in folks that would attend. While that may tend to gather more folks, my experience has been - cater to those that commit
In other words, if ten folks from Texas say "If it is in Texas, I will be there!" There is a really good chance the 1st one will be in Texas.
If there are 100 members in California, yet only one chimes in, guess where it will not be?
Trying to drop some hints here

Obviously if it's in Texas I'll be there. But if it's not I'll still do my best to make it anyway.

I believe you Florida folks are getting together frequently already are you not? That would weigh heavily in my decision to make my efforts where the people obviously show up. I really like it when people show up
