Here's a creative solution to the seeding issue. There is no reason
that the region that organizes the contest has to be the region where
the contest is flown. Why not run the (say) "region 2 regionals" in
Parowan? As an analogy, UK pilots annually put on a "national
contest" in Spain.

Then the group of pilots who gets their act together to organize the
thing can get priority to fly it. Organizers are a much more scarce
commodity than airports.

The rules are decidedly vague. They say that priority goes to pilots
from "the region" but they do not define "the region." They don't say
you can do this, but they don't say you can't either.
