I agree with the need for geographic boundaries, but that doesn't mean a single chapter couldn't cover a large area, perhaps a Western Chapter that serves everyone west of the Mississippi River. Right now, so much of the membership is concentrated in the old pre-1946 geography of the NFL. Having a Western Chapter would go a long ways toward serving membership.
If it's going to meet on-line, why is there a need for geographic boundaries?

The definition of a chapter in the PFRA is a sub-organization of the PFRA that serves people in a specific geographic area. A virtual chapter that is all-inclusive of PFRA members is simply the PFRA itself but virtually. The PFRA needs to think about how to do more virtual things, perhaps an off-year virtual conference, but a virtual chapter is not the thing.

“Forward!” he cried from the rear
And the front rank died
The general sat and the lines on the map
Moved from side to side

I don't even pay any attention to that any more.
