Re: 2016 regional dates?

If it's like last year (http://www.usfirst.org/roboticsprogr...-being-posted), events will start to be posted about a month from now. And then it'll take a couple of months until all events are posted, since they aren't posted until they are confirmed (generally means contracts are in hand and signed).

If you want to get tentative info on a schedule now, your best bet is to contact the RD or regional planning committee for the events you're considering and see if they can give you some unofficial guidance. For example, I know that The scheduling of the MN events is almost settled, but is by no means assured yet. Besides venue availability, we also have to consider other nearby events (Milwaukee and Chicago, for example), and how scheduling for all of those events will impact a new event in.... But I've said too much already. I'll leave that as a teaser for all of the teams who have been clamoring for another event somewhere in the upper Midwest
