Not up in the Pacific Northwest.  There used to be a Northwest Council
years ago, but membership and participation went far down in the last 15
years to the point where it is forgotten.  There is one club in the region
that has a weekend convention and show with speakers.

I wonder if that core group need not be that big (or even organized).  
For instance, a year and a half ago, the Seattle club had Karen out to
speak. We had people from Portland and Vancouver attending. How much more
effort would it have taken to add a "regional AGA meeting" as part of the
event?  Would it have been as simple as devoting 1/2 hour at the general
meeting to special AGA presentations?  Or perhaps getting together at a
member's home?  I still don't know what an AGA Meeting means exactly, so
I'm not sure...

Yes.
