IMO, the best antidote to wanting to retire from organizing these things is to team up. When the work is spread around between 3-4 FTers, it makes it all easier. Another tip is to have the organizing group make decisions.... just use common sense. If one of the other doesnt understand or want to go along, then thats fine... but those at the helm need to make things happen and sometimes simplicity needs to be first. Just my 2 cents.
