We have quite a few places (Rockwell Collins, John Deere, etc) that have lots of volunteers in FIRST and I would imagine send over to help out.

PS while you're here, you can visit the ORIGINAL place in Waterloo where John Deere first started

I think what Jajabinx124 meant was that a lot of the MN leadership worked hard to get the Iowa Regional started, rather than focusing on starting a 5th Regional within MN.
