All the talk about meeting locations prompted me to talk to our facilities folks. I can host an Installfest (or actual meeting, if that's desirable) at Toro's facilities in Bloomington. Lots of parking and easy access to the highway (sounds like I'm selling a house).

The only catch is, I have to take responsibility for you yahoos.

Anyway, the space in question has room for 60-80 people easy, with tables and chairs. I've got three separate 20 amp circuits into the room, and can probably pull more from the cafeteria next door. There are at least 4 network jacks into the room, and I have plenty of switching equipment, as well as wireless, that I can provide. Finally, I have 3mbps to Onvoy and 3mbps to Sprint all backed by a transparent cache.

Evenings or Saturdays are OK (Saturday is probably better), I just need a couple of weeks notice and to confirm the availability with facilities.
