Nice.. Free food and MoS. Should be a great time.

I thought the Boston regional was the most well planned and coordinated event I've been to. I expect it to be even better this year. Good job to the planning committee.

With the help of Motorola and NASA, the Boston FIRST Regional is implementing a ‘video database’
system. This will allow teams to cue up video of any previous match as requested, on demand! More
information will be provided at the event. ** We highly recommend all teams bring at least one laptop
computer, along with an Ethernet cable, in order to utilize this system **
Oh man. That is the coolest thing ever. They are recording all of the matches as they happen and putting them on an internet server for teams to watch. This is going to make scouting and strategy meetings on Friday night very interesting.

The Boston Regional rocks! They seem like they will always have something new in store for the teams each year. This will be a HUUUGE help when doing strategy and alliance selections.

Re: 2007 Boston Regional!
 
I am volunteering as a referee for the upcoming FIRST Robotics Boston Regional Competition, and am looking for a place to stay between Wednesday and Saturday night of the event (March 21-25). I'm travelling from New Jersey for the event and am hoping to find an affordable place to stay. If anyone has an extra hotel room, or is willing to split a hotel room with me, that would be fantastic. Or, if anyone would be willing to let me crash on their couch for a few nights, even that would work. I'm more than happy to reimburse for travel and subsidize any boarding costs.

If you have any suggestions or can spare a college student a place to sleep, please PM me or email me back at sreffler@usfirst.org.

Thanks in advance!

just want to point out that if your driving up and such, and planning on eating dinner out at a restaurant or what have you. the parking meters are free after 6. but a lot of streets might also be parking with a permit only.

less than 2 days!
good luck to all the teams!
