Re: Experience promoting districts in Minnesota

Brendan,
MN is mostly rural. Minneapolis/St/ Paul is the largest with Rochester, Bloomington (actually a Cities suburb) and Duluth being the largest cities.
Minnesota is actually larger than Massachusetts, Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine combined. To give you an idea, one team that attended Duluth is three hours north near the Canadian border. Another is in International Falls and two near Bemidji. All are about three hours drive on two lane roads. Much longer when weather is bad. My neice took about 5 hours to travel that distance to attend Duluth in snow.
There have been attempts to get a regional in Rochester or nearby.
