Hey Matt,

I'm the new Community leader for the Regional MMA section along with Jaime Moreno...and we're looking for people to join our section. I understand that you might not be interested in writing for our section, or posting information about our section (even though we'd love to see that happen), but we would love absolutely any input, or information about local events happening where you live, so that we can get the proper coverage for them, and their organizations. This way, MMA continues to grow even in the boondock areas! We hope you join, and let me know if you have any questions or ideas. Thanks!
