Go to Post Not every team can start 200 teams in Canada or Hawaii because they are located in relatively dense region of teams already. This doesn't mean they can't impact their local and surrounding areas. This is where you have to be creative. - tim-tim [more]

I might go the other way, but those are the top two, I think. It's hard to find a location in CA that fits for a district/small regional without having to deal with "larger" (read: non-school) venues. I can't think of more than about half a dozen "near" L.A. (read: within a couple of hours) that would work for that, though I could probably come up with a few more if we were talking "offseason". BTW, most of the ones I can think of have hosted an event in the past.

And then you get the volunteers...I worked 3 events this year; I know some of the other volunteers worked at least that many. And the only reason I did a third was because I knew that event was short-handed. Many of the volunteers have been doing this since I was competing...

It's not an easy problem to solve, though, particularly for some key positions.
