I agree with you that the national reunions should happen at least every two years. The regional reunions would not replace the national. Your right, interest wans and that is why I think we should try to keep some kind of communication avenue available. The last time I spoke with Jon he wanted me to start working on the reunions. I have a couple of concerns, we have about 790 members signed up in the roster and yet only 58 users of the message board so I am wondering if we a losing touch with some. If we could work on some kind of regional events it might help that.
Here are the demographics from the roster.

Om/Im Demographics:
Northeast 236
Southeast 170
Mid America 188
Northwest 66
Southwest 130
There are 11 living outside the US.

Top Five states in Order
Florida 82
California 80
Virginia70
Washington53
Illinois 37
Total from Roster is 790

It looks like the Sunbelt wins with the exception of the NE. Your suggestion of a mid Atlantic location for a National reunion is a good one by these numbers. I am going to look at that starting now. I would like to know what some of the other groups that do this charge. I have no idea, and do not want to suggest something that is out of reason.

Go to the Message Board, Reunion and post your thoughts.
