In the response to the questionaire I suggested that the regional meets could be tailored to a specific type of quarry from year to year. So maybe NE for ducks and pheasants one year, CO for Jackrabbits the next, etc. The idea being that it may attract other falconers from outside the region that want to hunt that particular quarry and also if you can't make it every year you could choose the year that suites you best.

When I was a kid we used to go to the PA falconry and hawk trust meet every year. There was always a 75+ person turnout at that meet, it was run really well, and no one ever seemed to have much trouble finding enough hawking spots. For the east coast that seems to be the closest to what it seems these regional meets would try to be.
