Where did the rest of them go? A few years ago they had 4 in tacoma. This year-2. I've known it went down a lot, but wasn't sure if there had been 3 or 4. I'd like to think the JW population in WA has decreased dramatically, but that is just me being snarky. What happened?
4 Conventions in Tacoma in 2001, only 2 this year!

How many people does the Tacoma Dome hold?
At a lot of convention sites, the building can hold up to 20,000, but maybe only 8 or 9000 are assigned there.
Maybe there are only 2 conventions but the building will be closer to full capacity each time?
Or maybe some folks in the outlying regions got assigned to another DC?
Seems pretty unlikely that the number of JWs would be reduced by 50% in just 8 years.

A friend of mine lives in the Sea area, he told me this last year, that there are only 2 now. Seems that many just got redispersed to other convention sites. ie portland, vancouver canada. Something like that.
Also, if you missed it I posted a thread about the jonas brothers concert interfering with their days at the Taco dome. The first group got changed to a thursday-saturday convention.

I know about the Jonas Bros. My mom is going to the convention this week.
I'm going to check my PMs.
