Or do what we did last year and are considering for this year as well - go to the Virginia Regional again! We actually did NY Tech Valley and Virginia last year and that worked out great, but with them hosted the same week this year that's impossible.

We like Virginia a lot, but the appeal of an upstate NY regional is also hard to beat. I wish one of the upstate NY events was earlier in the season...

If you're an NY team and want to go to 2 regionals, you have to either

a) do back to back weeks
b) cover the entire length of the state (and that's if you want to only do an NYC/FLR jaunt)
c) drive down to College Park, MD, California, PA, or Cleveland, OH or any points further away that.

I mean, for what it's worth, I'm used to the thrill of having the three closest regionals to me sharing 2 weekends, but I'm not asked to search for flights to go to the next closest one after that.
Ontario events are slightly closer, but then again the border is a non starter for a lot of teams. Montreal is the same week as TVR so even though that's arguably our second closest regional (!!!) it's not an option. Districts closing their borders to us have left us between a rock and a hard place.

You could come to the "Rock." Arkansas Rock City Regional is near the very nice Bill and Hillary Clinton Airport!

Two and a half weeks (17 days) remain until Registration begins on 25 Sep 14. So far, only 32 Regional events have been posted. The posting of District related events seems to be almost complete (still missing IN District Championship). I hope that by the time we are two weeks out, we have a complete list of events so teams can start considering which events to attend and begin planning their travel.

We just got an email confirming South Florida's move to a week 1 event, can't say I am to happy about that but it is what it is

If Central Illinois is held at the Avanti's Dome again, it will have to be a week one regional, as that is the only weekend open on their calendar of events.

Hey Frank, I've been carrying your Friday-Sunday dates in my unofficial list except that today I noticed that they were different from this post, which says traditional Thursday-Saturday for Peachtree. Any other word floating around, since still nothing official on the FIRST website?

Any word yet on what week the Hub City regional will be? With Dallas being week 1 this year, it seems like Lubbock may have to be later in the season to account for the number of teams that usually go to both.

I've heard it's week 5 but I don't know if that's official.

Still waiting on dates for San Diego and to see if this new Ventura regional happens and when that will be. Also, is Vegas out for sure? Is there another Phoenix? Things in the southwest here are still rather uncertain it seems.:D

Peachtree will remain a traditional T-F-S.

Any word on 10,000 Lakes/North Star?
I'm assuming it's still Week 5 at Williams and Mariucci respectively
