We enjoy ourselves at any regional we go to, and we have fun competing against everyone, old friends and new ones made along the way. We had issues with the hotels suggested by FIRST, moving us to a new hotel about 10 miles from the event at the last minute. There are alot of Virginia teams that attend this event, and that is awesome, but if you are not from Virginia, you don't feel real welcomed. There are a few teams that we enjoyed meeting/competing with (2363, 1610, 623) and seemed very receptive of us, but the majority treated us as outsiders. Again, this is my own perception or opinion.
