Looking at the map, it seems that if NY can get an event going at least at in Suffolk, and maybe at Syracuse, it would be very easy to switch over to a district. One of the biggest concerns about switching to District was how that would affect the NYC Regional event. With the change in venue to the Armory, that isn't really an issue any more. I think it is important that teams to be able to attend two events without having to stay overnight, and feel that it would be far easier to raise the money to raise the extra money to go to a centrally located "State Championship" that would require an overnight.
