I am actually kind of excited about that earlier post that alluded to people wanting to put together a new regatta.
Given the time/effort involved in organizing pretty much anything, I wonder what their thought process is in wanting another regatta.
Do they feel they are underserved in their particular geography?
Is their fleet/club not invited to some other regattas nearby?
Do they think it's a money-maker for a particular group?
Is there a new location that would make an excellent venue they wish to exploit?
Do they feel there is something "wrong" with the other regatta offerings that a new event would "fix"?
