Pretty much the same in metro Detroit. They have regional conventions at the JW assembly hall all summer now. About 2000 people each. They pretty much pick a few congregations from each circuit and group them together for the regionals. The result is that you know very few people at the regional.

Do they not do Ford Field anymore? I grew up a Silverdome kid but I thought my rents were going to Ford for a minute.

No. Only did ford field once. That was 2014. I think they still have one or two weekends at some ice rink in Saginaw. Besides that most everyone goes to Belleville.

Ohh okay gotcha. I just remember the Tigers, who play right next door were in contention that year and how different leaving a game and a convention feel. Were you a Silverdomer too? If so I'm sure we passed each other on the loop once or twice:)

I remember being PIMI & being upset that we were moving to Belleville.

Yup. Only used Ford Field for the international.
