The one year we did the banquet the first night, it didn't work well.
Besides the one-day folks, we had SEVERAL people who paid for their banquet,
but then missed out on it due to flight/driving problems.  Plus, if we're
going to ask our "big" speaker to do a talk at the banquet, it seems sort of
odd having them as the "kick-off".

NEC does have a convention "kick-off" get-together, though.  They have a
silent auction, and then some sort of presenation.  That might be the
perfect slot for the contest unveiling, and opening remarks, where they
wouldn't need to be sandwiched in among other things.
