Krys, I think the key to regional meets is just have it along with a state meet. We have 3 or 4 meets here in NC, I am sure one year we could arrange to have a regional meet. It isn't like a state would have to do it every year. Each state in a region could take turns. NAFA could pair up and in our instance, we would have a NAFA Southeastern Regional Meet co hosted by NC (fill in which state is helping that year). Sure, it would take some work, but it could be done. I know of a lot of falconers that would attend a regional meet but have never gone to and never will go to a NAFA meet due to the drive.
