It is purely a funding issue. When there is enough money from sponsors to pay for the Regional, (equipment like video walls, lighting, venue rental, etc) then additional money is sought for the social. Some get it, some don't. This fundraising is the responsibility of the local Regional Committee.

Our team has decided we don't need the social. While the games and stuff are fun, the music tends to be loud and of a nature our students are not encouraged to listen to.

That is one reason for organizing the trip to the 3rd Street Prominade. It is a fun place at night and you can actually talk to people on other teams. Be sure to wear your uniforms o we know who you are!
I hear ya...I strongly dislike the loud music: kinda defeats the points of having a social to meet other teams, when you can't hear eachother.

I like the idea of that 3rd street Promenade though, could you explain that to me: is it like a park, or what?
