Kudos to Jay for starting this important ball rolling!

IMHO, there would be no problem placing this CBC (in future years,
since it can't be official this year) on a Sunday or weekday.  There
are a number of premier spots in Maryland, Delaware, New York, and
coastal Virginia that occur on days other than Saturdays.  While a
count that features fewer species might have a hard time attracting
enough volunteer counters on anything but a Saturday, a prime spot
like Pace Point would likely not face that issue.  The coastal spots
in Maryland and Virginia have many people, some of whom travel a
great distance from other states to participate.  Once the word gets
out that Pace Point is as good as it's likely to be, you'll have
birders "flocking" to  that CBC, church and jobs notwithstanding.

Thanks a lot!
