Hello Christopher... I am the North American Shepherdess for AIN and have been "collecting" Regional Champions to keep the fire alive between conferences. I noticed you joined the Regional Champion group on this site... was that the way you are signing on to be the coordinator in your area? And, if so, how would you define your area?
Again, if so, what is your email address so I can add you to my list for the next group call.

Warm regards, Sue
