Only 8 Michigan districts so far. Going to need at least one more, probably a couple. Likely one week 4, the other 1 or 6. I don't think the volunteer density is enough for 3 in one week. Is Ann Arbor coming back?

To note, those 8 districts and the State Championship are confirmed on the FIRSTinMichigan website.

I waited until the FiM website data is published before I post on CD.

From my understanding, Ann Arbor will not have an event this year. There should be a 9th district event in Week 1, 4 or 6 like you said unless there are not enough teams. 8 events will cover 160 teams.

I know Florida Regional (Central Florida, that is since we now have two!) is almost always 2nd week, but I haven't heard anything yet. Good to know about Virginia Regional though! I can FINALLY make it this year!!!! (It's during my college Spring Break.)
However, I am now concerned that the Florida Regional will be at the same time, and I won't be able to chose! Gah!:yikes:

Based on when the UNLV spring break is (which I believe has always coincided with Vegas), the Las Vegas Regional will be week 6.

Rumors that the new Cincinnati regional will be week one.

We had learned that Salt Lake City regional is during week 6. We plan to attend that event if it holds true.

Not sure if this is exactly correct. FIRST should have something soon for all of us to feast on! Koko Ed - you'll have your vacation planned soon - maybe a stop in Cincy for some Skyline Chili? Not quite a Garbage Plate, nor is it Chili though...

What about Gold Star Chili? We make the cincy chili for dinner some nights. REALLY great stuff!! I love Cincinnati!

Gold Star is really close to the real thing - Skyline!:rolleyes: Some actually say that they can tell the difference, I'm not one. Nice that we have two options though.
Throw in a trip to LaRosa's Pizza, some Montgomery Inn Ribs and Graeters Ice Cream and you have the complete Cincy food experience.

I looked at when UC Davis and San Jose State have spring break, and they are both during week 5, which could mean that the Sacramento Regional and the Silicon Valley Regional would be the same week. Bad news for Norther California Teams. I'm really hoping this isn't true!

Oh yes!!! My parents went to UC! We definitely need to get the whole experience...maybe go see the Reds play or the Bengals.

Am I the only one sad about the DC regional being only 2 days?

Hold your horses until the committee or FIRST confirm that. I know that the Palmetto Regional (which has always been three days) would only advertise Friday and Saturday to the public.

Any date for Boston or the WPI regionals?

What about Frisch's?

Also we are calling it the Queen City Regional.
