and along those lines, bass is kind of problematic because really to be very competitive about it, you'd need a boat. 

Anyway, I'm kind of turned off by competitive fishing.  knowing my luck, I'd just be a "sucker" donor for the more serious contenders.  I have attended get togethers in the past, often theres a little competition to draw people and give fishermen something to concentrate on.  you can usually tell if its just a friendly amusement by the low entry fees and trivial awards.

I agree that if it were just a gathering (think One Fly) that would be good. Last year I toyed with the idea of a Goby tournament, obviously just for the socialization and entertainment, while also eliminating a few of our invasive friends. Still sounds like fun!

You'd need more than just permission......

The PAFBC requires a permit to hold a tournament. The DCNR also requires a fee if using one of the State Park Launches.

The idea of a "get together" is far more feasible and already done.

There were some board members who weren't registered to attend but showed up to chat anyway.
