I would of loved to get people up to Montreal (bagels anybody?), but I must admit that Kingston is dead in the middle for a lot of us (Toronto, Ottawa, Montreal, NY state) and could be the easiest and cheapest for traveling.

Second half of May sounds great.

That's the weekend before Victoria Day.  (The 24th of May is actually on the 24th of May this year!) Is there any American holiday happening in there?
