Truth is, if I knew that people would show up I would do whatever I could to help, but I've only seen 3 people on the boards from the NW area. Stamp, NW Jonathan, and myself... not encouraging if your planning on the expense of putting on a major event like a regional, but maybe Rob (or someone from Cactus) knows what the marketability is out here???

The NW has the challenge of remote wilderness. In addition, the highways that connect the few metro areas can be impassable for up to 4-5 months a year. For 8 years, Oregon and southern WA was the NW. I believe our record for attendance was 35 for a regional. One of our crew, Ben Arp, probably has the record for most miles flown as he has attended many National tournaments in the past.If you'd like to host a regional, I would help in any way I can. I can't commit to traveling very far...my summer is pretty booked, both financially and as the calendar goes. I did ask NWJonathan and NWJosh if they wanted me to host regional in the Salem area. I haven't heard back. NWJosh and his wife are having their first baby next month so I'm guessing he won't be involved this year. Ben Arp (DaClock) goes to school in San Diego, so he attends SW tournaments mostly. All of the Redemption cells have dried up over the years. My group is basically down to a couple of COGs, me and Dan Prince. I will ask around and see if there are any groups that are still active. I'll keep you posted.
I had chatted with Rob at 2005 Nats about doing Creation Fest West. NWJosh and I were going to run a big tournament there in 2006, but plans fell through. I don't know if I could make Creation Fest West this year. If you were to host a tournament there, we could pass the word around. 2013 (if we're all still here ) might be a good summer for me to go to Creation Fest West.
