Re: Norcal teams attending the Central Valley regional
 

Hi all, first time on CD , we got a little bummed out that it is the same week as Vegas ,our team has used Vegas as the home event for 11 years and dont want to give up going there, we also want to know how it works in a HS gym compaired to a event center.

While at the Madtown Throwdown we saw a picture of the complex and it was really nice. The CVR will not take place in the small Madera high school gym.

Re: Norcal teams attending the Central Valley regional
 

Jim Beck (WestCoast Regional Director) has been proposing a model that is similar to the Michigan model.

I don't know how much is 100% public, but things we are doing differently:

-Side by Side super high school sporting event gyms.
http://cvregional.com/index.php/venue

-Multiple practice fields

-Bigger pits

-Outside food allowed along with considerably higher quality food along with cheaper prices for drinks

-Water in the pits

-Cheaper regional - New ideas here.
--Such as saving around $20,000 on the venue etc..

And a few other small tid bits to hopefully make regionals better.

It seems like its going to be a great regional. A lot of big powerhouse teams are competing. Not to mention I think that this regional is going to have the most teams competing compared to any other regional in the Western U.S. Its going to be awesome

I'm looking forward to this regional, it's going to be fun.

Re: Norcal teams attending the Central Valley regional
 

Fembots are looking forward to CVR! We ordered some Swag and hopefully it's shipped before the regional. And by Swag I mean pom poms, face paint, hair spray, beads, eye shadow, and custom made Sponsor capes. :cool:

Majority of us are from around Sacramento, staying at a hotel there instead of getting up at 3am and riving.

Super excited to see...
254 - CHEESEY POOFS. They're really cool. :)
256 - Robo-Rams of course. I can finally see Andrew! I should make a button that says "Chief Delphi Nerd" ahha.
691 - HartBurn - I've never actually seen/met them before.. but they're 691 and we're 692.. Pretty pumped.
1671 - BIRDIES. Super cool people to sit behind at Sac. Wish we could've been on an alliance together to do a cheer or something.
1678 - Citrus Circuits - They have so much swag.
1967 - JANKSTERS!!!!!!!!
3598 - Alliance buddies. <3

Looking forward to breaking in this new regional with a bang! It's going to be a blast and probably one of the best competitions in CA if not all of FIRST this year.
