Pro
add your comments as bullet points. Nest if you like.
Probably inexpensive
Facilities are pretty good– I have been there for a couple of 100-200 person meetings, and I think it would probably scale reasonably (KS).
Car probably not needed.
Con
add your comments as bullet points. Nest if you like.
Somewhat isolated, and the climate is not very friendly during the summer.
There are only 2-3 flights/day from each major hub to Roanoke. Over 1000 people coming in might be problematic. No alternative airports nearby.
