I want to add some perspective to this discussion. Sacramento (SVSS) stepped up a couple of years ago and offered to hold the second leg of the Triad when Pasadena (PSS) lost access to the Rose Bowl flying site. I don't know if that has changed. SVSS held the second leg in 2003, and passed our info along to the appropriate person. When Visalia 2003 came along, there was no mention of the Triad, no trophy, nothing.
During contest year 2004 SVSS again offered to hold the second leg. We got no reply from CASL or CVRC, so we dropped the intent to add that to our advertising. No mention of it at Visalia 2004 either.
To resurrect this event (I believe it is currently dead), someone will have to take over the coordination, do the scoring, AND, solicit the $$ for the trophies for this event. In 2003 SVSS was asked if they would contribute to the trophy fund for 2004, and we said we would be glad to. Nothing more was ever discussed.
And another good idea goes the way of so many others. Either politics gets involved, or nobody picks up the responsibility. Edgar, you interested? I'd suggest Mike, but he has other areas to involve himself in this year, like F3B.
