Re: FIRST Chesapeake Districts
Well for the Hampton Roads area 2363 was working on it being at Menchville, but they have a schedule conflict with it being there from what i understand. There are though a lot of large High schools in the area. At one time Patty Meade from Norfolk State University was talking about a event there...but i think she wanted to see a regional there...not districts. They do hold one of the FTC events there though. A very long time ago (like 8 or so years ago) someone from Old Dominion was talking about a event there...again i think it was for a regional.
In Suffolk you have three High Schools....Nansemond River...which isn't near
anything in the way of food or lodging, Kings Fork (which has a FTC team) while closer to food and lodging is still not really close to it and lastly Lakeland which isn't near much either. Nansemond River is home to FRC team 3168. Not mentioned are any of the private schools like Nansemond-Suffolk Academy which is just down the road from Kings Fork High.
In Isle of Wight only has Smithfield High which is about as close to food as Suffolk's Kings Fork high is...and lodging a even further away and not much of it. It would be better to look for something in Norfolk, Chesapeake or Va. Beach on the Southside. Across the James River you have Menchville, Warwick and Phoebus...and maybe some others. It might be possible to do something at Christopher Newport College if they could be talked into it.
