[TheForge] Center of the country

[Tod Estes]

I just looked at http://www.exposquare.com  Its the Tulsa fairgrounds /
International Petrol Expo. building. It offers Onsite RV park, Onsite hotel,
parking. Water park,amusement park, horse track on grounds. However they have a
rule that no propane tanks in the buildings. That may be negotioable. I have
seen scouts cook over charcoal in the IPE building.
Just thinking.
Its not the Center of North America but its a nice place.
But I am biased also.
