I agree with many here that Ann Arbor should be the location for next High Times MMMP venture.
Furthermore, I believe Hash Bash 2013 would be an awesome time to start an annual High Times event. The 42nd annual Hash Bash will be held Saturday April 6, 2013 at high noon followed by an evening at the Monroe Street Fair.

As far as governmental issues Ann Arbor has very lenient laws regarding the possession of marijuanaa $25 fine for the first offense, a $50 fine for the second offense, and a $100 fine for the third (and subsequent) offenseand is a simple civil infraction rather than a criminal offense, such as misdemeanor or felony. This is why the Hash Bash began and became a national legend. I cannot think of a better place!
Sad to say, but the Hash Bash really needs such a boost

Attendance had a resurgence following the 2009 medical marijuana's victory in Michigan, but has already hit it's peak.
The 2009 Hash Bash on April 4th had an estimated 1600 attendees.
The 2010 Hash Bash on April 3rd had an estimated 5000 attendees.
The 2011 Hash Bash on Apr 2nd had an estimated 6000-6500 attendees.
The 2012 Hash Bash on April 7th had an estimated 5500 attendees.
What do you think guys, could we do it here? We need to start with a High Times write in campaign to "Save the Hash Bash 2013".
