I think that the biggest unique problem for California (or New York, whichever comes first

) to trailblaze is district size and team distribution. Like Eric said above, California is
big, and there are large parts of the state without the team density to host events. This is the root of the discussion surrounding possibly splitting Northern and Southern CA in some fashion. A similar problem exists in NY between teams in/around NYC and those upstate.
Whoever can work out scaling districts to situations like these (making a system that benefits teams and that HQ approves of) will end up having a large impact.
