This set of district/DCMP event locations looks pretty realistic to me. With these locations, the majority of teams would only need to stay overnight for a maximum of 1 event (unless they choose to travel).

For upstate teams, I could see district events located in the Buffalo, Rochester, Syracuse, and Albany areas. This way, each team has at least 2 districts within a reasonable distance to commute to and from each day.

I'm looking forward to seeing the district model come to New York, and with some strategic planning we should be able to make it work.
