2008 Regional Dates
 
Does anybody know the dates for the 2008 Regionals. We are interested in the new Oklahoma City Regional, and would like to know when it will be. We are hoping that there will not be any scheduling conflicts with Lone Star. We are also wanting to add one more regional to our schedule. :)

The "Welcome to 2007 FRC Season" email was sent out on 12 Sep 2006. It had links to the calendar, but I don't know if all the regional dates were finalized then. If not then, it was shortly thereafter, as regional registration began 2 Oct 2006.

In July - August normally some information from individual users that are on planning committees is release/rumor on when a regional is. Of course that information isn't official until FIRST posts it in Mid September.

Until then many will be wondering

Get in touch with someone on the Regional Planning Committee, or better, the Regional Director. It's possible that they will have already arranged for the venue, and will be able to let you know in advance.

Tristan's right. Many events use venues that must be booked well in advance, and quite a few are already booked now for their 2008 events. Your regional planning committee or regional director will know if dates for a particular event are already set by venue availability.

The Hawaii regional is set! March 27-29, 2008.
The committee had to secure the Stan Sheriff Center at the UH Manoa campus and move some of our mens volleyball games already.
It will be official when Dean Kamen makes the announcement in Hawaii on May 14!
Hope all of you can come!

Any insiders have an estimated date of the Vegas regional in 2008?

I'm looking for expected dates of regionals March 13-15... my spring break. That looks as though it would be the only time I could go to a regional that isn't in Chicago. I'm looking for a fun place to go that's pretty far from here. I was planning on Hawaii but I just can't afford to miss any school again.

Hello...

I wondered about this too and since we go to VCU every year I looked up the
VCU Segal center's schedule and as usual they have the first Thurs, Fri, and Sat in March scheduled, but what was odd was that wednesday was scheduled also..then again...it might be a set-up day.

Odd that they call it a conference...

Isn't Easter in the middle of March next year? Is FIRST going to skip that week or are they going to go on with the regionals? If they do have regionals during that weekend, would anyone actually go?

Easter is March 23. Schools in Michigan will also be on break BEFORE, Easter, instead of after like usual.
