I will bring this issue up at the October meeting Greg.
The Gulf Coast Chapter covers all counties from Manatee to Collier so Charlotte County is a good central location, but I understand your concern.
We generally get good participation from Charlotte, North Port, Venice, Sarasota County, Punta Gorda, Cape Coral, and various Private Providers. I don't think I have ever seen a Lee County and South, or Manatee County attendee.
This months meeting is on October 18th in Port Charlotte.
