I suppose since Dave is watching this thread I can't slip out the date. :)

We have an approved venue, but no contract yet. Hopefully we get that soon so we can release the schedule!

Here is the disclaimer. Any comments on this thread are just pure speculation. Any dates that actually match the real dates are pure coincidence. Plan your vacation schedule around these dates at your own risk. Blah Blah Blah. Is that better?

Dave and I are both on the planning committee for the event, I don't want to let the bunny out too soon.

I heard UC Davis is most likely Week 5 but the UCD calendar doesn't show any thing booked yet... So????

Well this is just looking at their spring breaks. I don't think that the regional committees would put them on the same week, especially since they are so close!

Same with Virginia last year. It was a minor pain to find out when load-in started because it wasn't listed anywhere...

Hopefully that doesn't happen this year! Yikes!
Can't wait to see the Pi-oneers there! I haven't seen you guys at a regional since Las Vegas in '07 when I was still in high school!

From some documentation I've seen:

New Jersey, Eastern Pennsylvania and Delaware will be going to the District system in 2012.

There will be 5 'Regional Qualifying' events, Spread out among 4 weeks of competition with the possibility of a by week in week 3. Two of the events will be in north eastern PA, One in South Jersey, One in Central Jersey and another in North Jersey.

These Qualifiers will be followed up with a Regional Championship in Week 7.

All of this information is still subject to change.

Interesting to see how both district systems are (reportedly) going with a Week 7 championship. It'll be interesting to see if the Easter weekend will significantly affect attendance at week 6 events.

Week 7 Championship makes a ton of sense considering the logistical nightmare of competing on Easter weekend.

The big issue with competing in week 7 is now you've got two weeks to plan your trip to the CMP should you qualify, and buying plane tickets and booking hotels that late isn't really a fun or cheap experience.

Just got an e-mail from Peachtree VC that Peachtree, GA Regional is indeed a Week 3 event! March 15th-17th!
Sad that I can't physically attend but that's because I'll be in Virginia!!!!
