...why is the Rocky Mountain Section so freakin' huge? Wouldn't it make more sense to break it down into smaller segments that could be more easily managed? I mean South Dakota to Arizona is quite a stretch!

True, I wish we had more coaches, fencers and fencing clubs in our section. Then that would not be the case.

If wishes were horses...

The pure size of the section is an antidote to growth.

It's bigger than people can comprehend or manage.

It should be split up along with the SE Section which is similarly proportioned.

If I understand the regional restructure movment, people will be allowed to travel to any qualifing event to qualify for nationals, very simular to the regional youth set-up now..
