However, usually you want to get in contact with your area director. They usually have all of the event management information laid out really well, and they are super helpful.
The regional director down here is Rick Folea, and he's nothing short of awesome. His contact information is located here. I notice you're located in Louisiana, which might be a little bit out of his reach, but if so, he'll get you in contact with the right person.

He's partnering with LSU to try and make it happen.

I'm a student at LSU and I think the robotics lab has talked to him. This is the first I've heard of anyone partnering with us to get a VEX tournament going but I'll check in with some of my peers to see if they know anything. I hope he is though because I think it would be a good idea to get VEX going in Louisiana.
