I do have my concerns about DCMP being held at WPI this year and the venue' capability, mainly concerning pit space. With that said, I want to re-stress what Francis mentioned here. I know the NE FIRST leadership took choosing where to have DCMP very seriously, and weighed several options and venues. They looked at all aspects of choosing a venue, both in the venue itself, the local volunteer support, and the surrounding area resources (hotels, attractions, etc.) They certainly did their homework.

If things end up not working out to satisfactory conditions, I'm sure district leadership will look to make changes. Until then though, give NE FIRST the benefit of a doubt, and give WPI a chance to prove themselves.

At the end of the day, (for NE or elsewhere), whether your happy with this years schedule or not, it is set in stone. Focus on making upcoming season as great as you can. To those behind the scenes who aren't as happy with where things fell, just focus on giving the teams the best experience possible. After all, in the end thats what matters.
