Still, still waiting on New England Districts. I spoke with FIRST last week and was told that they are still waiting on contracts being signed but that the details would be up by the middle of September.

Re: [FRC Blog] FRC Events Being Posted and AMAA on FUN
New count is 63, up from 54... additions are:
Arkansas Rock City - 08 Mar Seven Rivers - 12 Apr + 6 Chesapeake District Events + Chesapeake District Championship - 5 Apr --- Edit: Also interesting to note we've about hit 1/2 of the total event count from last year. |

Re: [FRC Blog] FRC Events Being Posted and AMAA on FUN
I grew up in La Crosse, WI where seven rivers is being held.
I think the out of towners will be surprised what a nice city it is. The scenery is actually one of kind with it being in the driftless area and the Mississippi river right behind the venue. It is certainly not the big city, but that is what makes it great. |
Re: [FRC Blog] FRC Events Being Posted and AMAA on FUN
Thanks for the feedback on the Seven Rivers Regional.
We knew Week 7 would be tricky (even more so next year as that is Easter) There is actually a separate thread already for the regional - and I didn't start it. Thanks Alex! https://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/s...hreadid=150469 |

DISTRICTS IN WISCONSIN ? I haven't run into many people in the state who are against the idea, but I have met some who are working hard to make it a reality. La Crosse already has great team growth- 7 teams have popped up in and around it over the past 5 years. A Regional there will be great for team and volunteer growth in western WI and will make hosting a District Event so much easier for them in, hopefully, 2018. I was pretty excited about potentially going to Seven Rivers, but seeing as it's Easter weekend, during our schools' spring breaks, and Week 7, 1732 unfortunately probably won't be going. |

Sorry if this was addressed somewhere in the previous 8 pages. But I am getting no results found on the firstinspires (new) site. I have tried various searches on that page with the same non-result. Am I looking on the wrong page? Site doesn't like my browser? (current version of FF). Doesn't like me?

Re: [FRC Blog] FRC Events Being Posted and AMAA on FUN
Hope NYC is ready for the likely flood from upstate teams.
I would not be surprised if many upstate teams doing two regionals came to NYC with the FLR, TVR, and Pitt conundrum. With lots of time between week 3 events and NYC, and being relatively close to upstate there could be a lot of competition between NYC teams, international teams, and upstate teams to get a spot at NYC. Then again there will likely be lots of competition with upstate teams at all the regionals relatively close to upstate (Quebec, NYC, Long Island, mythical new regional) depending on dates. |

Re: [FRC Blog] FRC Events Being Posted and AMAA on FUN
Any Ideas on when IN events are being announced? Last year, IN did it before the mentor meetings and it was on August 31st when they made a blog about the events. This year, the mentor meetings were yesterday, 2 days ago, and 3 days ago. So it isn't really following the same pattern.
Thanks! Just curious about the events. It's the start of the excitement that builds up to build season. :D |

Week 1:

Re: [FRC Blog] FRC Events Being Posted and AMAA on FUN

I am excited to hear about how the new venue at Bedford High School works out. And there are still many of the old venues back from last year that this isn't the worst possible scenario. But not having any events in four of the best NE venues (BU, NU, Verizon, Hartford's arena) stinks and only have two events that aren't fri-sun isn't great. Then again it's still better than not being in districts at all. |
Re: [FRC Blog] FRC Events Being Posted and AMAA on FUN
Quote:
Upside to Revere is that one of the biggest costs teams always had about BU/NEU was cost of parking is no longer an issue. And, while the venue is definitely not as ... as something, I'm not really sure the word, maybe, nice? It does meet the requirements for a district event quite well and may even improve on team experience by decreasing costs for teams. |

The only reason RIDE, which is returning to Bryant University, is not Thu-Sat is because the president of Bryant got complaints from the faculty about having to walk a further distance from their cars during the event. Nothing to do with policies, event conflicts, etc. Providence Career and Tech high school, who hosted RIDE last season, would not let us into the gym early Thursday due to gym classes running during school hours. We only got Thu - Sat because the school was closed for Good Friday. Regarding DCMP, I am a huge fan of the Week 6 DCMP as it gives WCMP qualifying teams a better chance of using their invite. That 11 day turnaround from DCMP to WCMP was tight. |
Re: [FRC Blog] FRC Events Being Posted and AMAA on FUN

I do have some concerns for UNH hosting the DCMP, but those aren't for me they are for other teams having to travel. We do thank NEFIRST for rotating it up here so our families and sponsors have a chance to attend! We just know there isn't much for hotel options for visiting teams and even we push the boundaries of commuting vs staying overnight. Parking will also be tight from family and friends who commute to UNH. Its not perfect but I think of the four venues we've had its the lower on the list of good places to host. Glad to see a Bedford, NH event. Maybe Dean will stop by considering its 5 minutes from his house! :rolleyes: |
Re: [FRC Blog] FRC Events Being Posted and AMAA on FUN
Four PCH District events and the DCMP brings us from 108 to 113.
|
Re: [FRC Blog] FRC Events Being Posted and AMAA on FUN
I started looking at where our team might attend, and made a map to visualize the location of the NEFIRST events. I put the teams in as a layer to see the rough distribution (teams are from 2016, TBA data), and thought other teams might be interested in saving the work.

This does have the effect of improperly showing less team density in certain areas. If I could figure out how to have it put a number on those, or change the size of the dot, I would. If anyone has a CSV file of the teams in NE that includes a street address, I will import that and that should fix the problem, save for teams with the exact same street address (if there are any). |
