Best dates for star parties?

I had someone e-mail me today saying they prefer May for a big star party. The one I am involved with is mid-June to mid-July, wherever new moon falls, due to least chance of rain, and fewer thunderstorms (smoke from fires, rain, clouds). The downside is we get about the shortest nights of the year, for a night time hobby! But we seem to get the best results. Anyone comment with some other thoughts?
Thanks,
