In Jim Zondag's FiM FAQ White Paper he said that in FiM teams are required to supply two volunteers to each tournament that they attend. Assuming district events have around 40 teams in attendance, that's an additional 80 volunteers per event. That still doesn't necessarily fill the Key Volunteer and event planner positions, but FiM, MAR, PNW and NEF must have run into that issue as well and overcome it.

I guess what I'm really trying to say is that, as a member of a Wisconsin team, I really want to see more cool semi-local action.
