2014 Peachtree Regional
 
The Peachtree Regional. March 27th - 29th. Georgia World Congress Center.

A new (and at the same time, old) competition venue, a new competition week, & some new faces; 2014 is going to be an interesting competition year. Who's ready to turn up & win a blue banner in the great city of Atlanta?

1311 will not be going to the Peachtree for the 1st time in history. We will be volunteering but not competing.

Heading to the Palmetto and then to the Bayou.

If I may, why?

pretty simple actually. we want to do two regionals, travel around, go to the beach. Palmetto is well 'Myrtle Beach'.... still a little cool temperature wise at that date but neat to go to. Bayou is during the school districts spring break week and that will be a little bit of a vacation going there.

That sounds...fun.

On a separate note, I love the venue change. This will probably solve the seating issue, but I love that the P'tree regional is back within five minutes of my residence.

It's so funny to see teams in the 5000s...

I am going to miss the easy parking especially for the trailer.

parking will be easy.. just park in the yellow or blue lots at GWCC

Re: 2014 Peachtree Regional
 
Parking shouldn't be too bad but I did notice that they are having two other events that weekend and one of them is the International Auto Show. That might make parking a bit more difficult especially for large trucks and trailers. I hope the regional planners are working to block some areas off just for the FRC folks and their trailers. Does anybody have any insight into that? It's also interesting that the GWCC website doesn't list the Peachtree Regional yet?? See the link below...

For all those teams that asked me where 1102 has been the past few years, looks like they've finally made their way back.

If my rookie team's regional doesn't conflict, I might make a visit back to Peachtree to volunteer again.

It'll definitely be worth it, we used the new venue for the GRITS offseason event. If they have the audio engineers place the speakers in better spots, it looks like the venue will be amazing!

Yeah, the placement wasn't ideal of the speakers. I had to move strategically when MCing to avoid feedback.

If the committee needs help setting up the audio, I can help with that. I have some experience (you remember) in setting up audio in somewhat large venues. The new space has plenty of potential, but bad speaker placement can kill the excitement a lot. ::ouch::

Is anybody else planning to be at the Johnson Destination Einstein field this Saturday? 1746 will be showing up for a bit of practice.

1 week until Peachtree!

We're going to be at the field at Walton's space. I have heard of a few teams who will be at destination einstein though.
