2010 Regional Dates
Hi all. Just received a flyer that said that 2010's Las Vegas Regional will be April 1st-3rd.
So I think it might be better just to consolidate all the regional dates [that we know of so far :/ - the official ones came out mid-September last year] into one thread like last year... Kickoff: 1/9 Ship Date: 2/23 WEEK 1: March 4-6 Oregon Regional * WEEK 2: March 11-13 New York City Regional (3/12-14) WEEK 3: March 18-20 WEEK 4: March 25-27 SBPLI Long Island Regional * WEEK 5: April 1-3 Las Vegas Regional Atlanta: April 15-17 |

Re: 2010 Regional Dates
Just curious, but why is kick-off schedule for 1/9? Generally it's the first saturday of the year, which would be 1/2... Is it because of the fact that it's only the second after the new year or do you guys think it's some other reason?

Re: 2010 Regional Dates
That's been well-discussed. 1/1 is a holiday so freight shipping is at a standstill, leaving 1/2 as a "bad" day to get the Kits of Parts to their rightful places.
I wasn't involved in FIRST then, but this has happened before. |

Re: 2010 Regional Dates
We can also make reasonable guesses at many of the regionals that have traditionally been held during a particular college or university's spring break.
For example, in 2010, RIT will be holding their spring break from 2/28-3/7, so it appears likely that the Finger Lakes Regional would occur during Week 1 (Mar 4-6). I will defer to the thread starter as to whether we should post estimates like this here or leave them out. |
Re: 2010 Regional Dates
I have been told by Laurie Shimizu (who works closely with Mark Lawrence who is the brother of Susan Lawrence) that Midwest is week one and Minnesota is week five.
I would be pretty certain about Minnesota's weekend and week one has been Midwest's weekend for a while now. |

Re: 2010 Regional Dates
We know that registration for regionals start on 10/1. Does anyone know when the official regional schedule will be published?

Re: 2010 Regional Dates
As I remember it, the Palmetto Regional is still and Clemson (for better or worse) and scheduled for the last weekend in March--that'd be the 25th-27th. Don't quote me on that, though--I may be wrong for all I know.
