Lorel,
My first thought was that if you have to ask, it's probably not the right time for you to take this on. Then, I read your post about the boy scout thing taking 4 hours and I think you've got your hands full.
It sounds to me like the group needs to formally organize, with that many people and with the "leader" leaving. Perhaps you could suggest to her that she consider this as her parting gift and that you'd help. Once the group was organized, with a board, you might be able to be the president and rely on others for other duties.
So, I guess that's a vote for "no, not crazy, but close!". Know, though, that we're here to support you whatever you decide.
