IMHO, making a California/Alaska/Hawaii district is very illogical. Imagine the cost of making EVERY team in this area attend two events, not even taking into account the cost for a Regional Championship.

I am also from Michigan. The district model works for us because 90% of teams have two districts within an hour of drive time. This significantly lowers the cost for a team because we don't need to account for hotel costs and bus rentals. The end of the day means that we drive home and rest for free, rather than paying $100 per hotel room per night.

There is almost no way that all 30+ teams from Hawaii can pay for one mainland event and their own district event. Its just not sustainable.
