Tim,

This is a limitation of using Frappr. I suppose the old map handled club “areas of influance” a bit better. While comming up with this however I was told by some that having the single point was a good thing because most clubs cover a wider Geographic area but tend to generally be centralized around a single point.

This is try of NELUG, we cover all of New England and have members in 5 of the 6 states but we generally have meetings in the Boston area. That obviously isn’t exclusively the case but as you can see from our Local Map our membership does tend to gravitate towards the Boston area.

What I would suggest is including in your “Shout Out” a little discription of what areas the Brickish Association covers and the things you do.

Thanks for joining the LUGFinder map,


-Eric
