According to their facebook page, week 1 and week 6 are both being considered, if you have a preference either way you should go and comment.

Having SFR week 1 would stink in one aspect, but would also make it very interesting for teams that are able to spend a minimum amount of money for both SFR and Orlando; making them able to attend a later regional as well.

Yeah, it would make going to the three closest regional events to us *and most teams that attend Orlando/SFR* quite easy. Go SFR, take a break/improve parts, go to Orlando, same thing, go to Peach Tree or any other late regional. Peach tree just happens to be the closest non Florida regional, making it easier for less wealthy teams to make it there :)

There are also rumors of a regional event in southern Georgia, as I know a friend of a friend who's mentor's brother's uncle is apparently on the secret RPC.

Interesting, first I've heard of that. Though, I prefer confirmed facts to rumors :P. IF sfr is a week six regional, going to all three would still be possible, but would be more like, Orlando, break, Peachtree, SFR, giving us less time to rest and less time to work on parts/strategies.

Week 1 for the win! We get to break stuff first :yikes: (including stuff that's not ours!)

It's not just rumors, two member of the RPC I've spoken to said the plan is to have another georgia regional. I think the contract for the venue is being worked out still.

It's always rumors until it's official :P

This is an interesting event we would consider if Australia falls through.

I think I would rather go to Australia. :D

We would love to host a HOF team in Kansas City. I bet we could even find you some BBQ.

Greater Kansas City has always been a great and memorable event since it's creation in 2007. Last year it changed locations to Metropolitan Community College. Plus, and someone please correct me if I'm wrong and this was discontinued with the venue change, they do a pancake breakfast one morning with Chris Cakes whose owner Steve Hamilton formerly held the Guinness Book of World Records record for flipping the most pancakes in 1 hour (956 if you were curious). As I just discovered his record was broken last year.

I was unable to attend last year due to moving out of the area so I'm unsure of how the new venue is set up. That being said, the RPC and the KC STEM Alliance who house KC FIRST are absolutely wonderful in making great events. Although I might be a bit biased as I worked closely with both organizations as a volunteer before I moved.
