In Florida we've always been ready and willing for a meet, anytime and anywhere, and that's how we've gained all these honoraries from around the country and beyond. We learned how to throw a huge party through all the smaller ones before it. Again a National meet has a solid first requirement of a decent local crew.
Its not that Chicago is slow but instead were just busy either starting families or working all the time. Florida has lots of older peeps that have already been down that road and Cali has lots of college age peeps that have not started the trip of life yet. more and more Chicago peeps are doing the meets these days so thats a great sign and with the ChiUniFi we all will get into a group team thing over time.
i agree with you about having smaller meets fully!
then again this is just my opinion and not like a speak for an Entire City of Pizza and hot dogs or anything...
anyway back to the topic
