Having your season end after only one district event in some schools gymnasium compared to having gone to a full event with 60+ teams, I would rather choose the latter.

Locations are not the issue. What others have mentioned, that you might be misconstruing as lack of locations, is the quality of the event. To go from Marrucci arena or the DECC to a high school gym while still having to pay a $5,000 entry fee kinda makes teams and event planners squirm.
All districts (including Minnesota if/when that happens) get two district events for the price of one regional.

I think this shows how important these discussions and grass-roots efforts are in making sure everyone (including key event volunteers) understands the basics of districts and are on the same page.
