Week 3: March 12-14 – Springside-Chestnut Hill, Philadelphia, PA
Week 4: March 20-22 – Seneca-Lenape, Tabernacle, NJ
Week 5: March 27-29 – Bridgewater-Raritan, Bridgewater, NJ
Week 5: March 27-29 – Upper Darby, Upper Darby, PA
Week 6: April 2-4 – North Brunswick, North Brunswick, NJ
Week 7: April 8-11 – MAR Championship, Lehigh University, Bethlehem, PA

It's nice to see a Pennsylvania event later in the season.

Also fun fact: This is the fourth different name the district at Seneca High School has gone by.
Not all MAR District events are posted on the official FIRST list. MAR Event #6 is missing, which should be Upper Darby / 27-29 Mar 15) if the previous MAR post from Steven Donow was correct. Also the MAR Championship not listed as well.

Edit:
Missing MAR Event #6 was just posted as a PNW District Event Subtype!! Hopefully it will be corrected soon.
Missing MAR Championship was also just posted.

Not just Oregon teams (although southern OR will have it particularly bad), PNW Championship in Eastern Washington will mean nearly all teams will have to travel for it. Check out the District Team Map from 2014.

Last year there were only 15 teams within a 50 mile radius of Eastern Washington University. Compare that to 31 for Portland, or 66 for Seattle (same 50 mi radius). I guess venue cost wins out over individual team travel/hotel costs ...

I do appreciate the extra week for travel planning before Championships - I know it was a push for a lot of PNW teams last year.

You can tell that it's far when Google Maps starts giving you airline quotes for getting there.

I'm a fan that Traverse City and Escanaba are not consecutive weeks. A couple teams didn't do both even though they were significantly the two closest events, so that shouldn't be an issue this year.

I'm a little disappointed that St. Joe and West Michigan are the same week. It looks like we will have to increase our travel budget and be sure we get signed up for Gull Lake this year. Seems like we can't get much of a spread in competition dates within our travel range this year. On the upside, we get to go somewhere we've never been before!

I'm starting to get nervous about what is...and what is not... already published for the Southeast. With NC and VA the same weekend (week 4)...obviously only one of those is possible. DC and Peachtree are both the following week - so not optimal.

Any anecdotal evidence or even plausible rumors about the expected dates for Smoky Mountains, Chesapeake, or anything within reasonable travel distance from North Carolina?

Might have to do Palmetto...love the area and the teams...just hate the thought of a week one regional!

Don't fear week 1. We loved doing a week 1 last year. It forced us to stick to our schedule. Also, all the other teams at the regional will be in the same boat as you.

I've personally attended the last two Palmetto Regionals...2013 as a "scout" and 2014 as an inspector...I just really like watching some competition before we play our first.

From a reliable source but he said it's still not confirmed, Smoky Mountain will be April 1-4

I think we're still missing for 26 returning regionals (assuming all regionals outside of Indiana are returning), on top of NE/Indiana dates and any new regionals that are popping up.

Initial event registration is in 23 days.
