The attitude for many years is that the people from the west coast are much 
more willing to travel than the folks from the east so we get to pay the extra 
cost and take the extra chances of traveling with our dogs. I know the people 
from the west are getting tried of being asked to come on over anyway you can. 
Many of the people from the east coast made it clear that they would make no 
attempt to come to the Oregon national and they didn't.  Maybe the folks on the 
west coast should learn a lesson from the east coast folks. Don't travel and 
they will bring the national to you. It seems to work for the east coast crowd.

The following is where all the nationals have been since 1970....... 
consider mid as central as per the most recent maps.
1970 - Denver, Co Mid
1971 - Detroit, MI Mid
1972 - Atlanta, GA (Stone Mtn) East
1973 - Seattle, WA West
1974 - Dallas, TX Mid
1975 - Louisville, KY Mid
1976 - Niagara Falls, NY East
1977 - Anaheim, CA West
1978 - Kansas City, MO Mid
1979 - Niagara Falls, NY East
1980 - Cincinnati, OH Mid
1981 - Tulsa, OK Mid
1982 - Cleveland, OH Mid
1983 - Philadelphia, PA East
1984 - Tempe, AZ West
1985 - St. Louis, MO Mid
1986 - Atlanta, GA East
1987 - Burbank, CA West
1988 - Houston, TX Mid
1989 - Philadelphia, PA East
1990 - Anaheim, CA West
1991 - Houston, TX Mid
1992 - Perry, GA East
1993 - Scottsdale, AZ West
1994 - Perry, GA East
1995 - Burbank, CA West
1996 - Lexington, KY Mid
1997 - Perry GA East
1998 - Perry, GA East
1999 - Del Mar, CA West
2000 - Columbus, OH Mid
2001 - Perry, GA East
2002 - Lake St. Louis, MO Mid
2003 - Daytona Beach, Fl East
2004 - Albany, OR West
2005 - Concord, NC East
2006 - Lake St. Louis, MO Mid
2007 - Ft. Collins, CO Mid (west???)
2008 - Beaumont, TX Mid
2009 - Springfield, Oh Mid (but being called east)

It would appear we are really short on west nationals with only 9 out of 40 
being in that zone so Evan's message indicating we need to go west seems very 
warranted. 
18 were or will be held in the middle or central area, 13 in the east. Ft 
Collins being clearly east of the great divide should be a mid zone. It 
appears there was a "relaxed" pattern for many for several years of mid, mid 
east 
then west, slightly broken up but not clearly defined. The survey in 2004 
by the board indicated the choice of east, central, west, central and got the 
most votes. It seems like a fair assessment. The survey and its maps were 
also moved and adopted by the board, so I think they need to look at the 
pattern of adoption and the division of zones.
In 40 years there has only been 1 national in Florida, and they have the 3rd 
I believe highest membership state. I think we should re think 
Jacksonville if it has everything to offer, or at least take a look at it - AND 
I think 
we should be looking for something in California.
Just some more facts to consider.
