Why are there only three East events???  You could go somewhere with that
too.  Not enough participants to justify a 4th?  Why is there no event near
San Fran -- it is the largest Region (membership and participation wise)?
let's add a 5th event for the West in Central CA at an average of 250...

California is a big state -- it is the 5th? largest economy in the world.  I
think the 5th largest economy in the world could support a few tour events.

A little bit of flawed logic there.  Let's see.... 4 West events with
(assuming, according to James) 988 and THREE East events with 889.  Looks
like West events average 247 entrants, while East events average 296
entrants.

Besides, does it REALLY matter where the National Office is?  Ford Motors
and General Motors are headquarted in Michigan, but not all of the cars in
the world are made there.
