It makes alot of sense to have an event at each of the four corners of the

How many brick events does Europe have compared to the US?  Why don't we have
more?  Why just the four corners of the US?  Milwaukee, Chicago, or Indianapolis

there's someplace east of the Rockies that would be a great place for a Western
Central US event.

At BrickFest, several people approached me about a Midwest fest. I'd like to
have one in Chicago, but I can't lead it with everything else I'm involved in. I
encourage locals to think about this, as I'd love to have one here. O'Hare is a
VERY convenient airport to get to, since it's a major hub. One of the perks of
living here is I can get direct flights to almost anywhere I need to go :-)
