I agree, it wouldnt be a nyc regional without pit announcer lady. If somebody has tape from the pits with her screaming in the background, they should really post it, so that the larger FIRST community can share in her announcing greatness.

This was my last event in my high school FIRST career, and I greatly appreciate the effort that went into the planning and running of the event. I was worried at first about moving from Columbia, but I feel the new location was perfect for the competition. My team particularly enjoyed the astroturf football field, since some of our team let out some steam in a lunchtime football game. I can't speak much for the parking and food situation since we came by bus and I brought lunch with me. I would advise the planners of the event to keep the amount of teams about the same, since I think we pretty much maxed out the seating available there. I realize it was mostly funding related, but I really think if possible there should be a team social next year. I saw the park's amphitheater down below the level the event was on, and that looked like a fine place for a band or dj to go on. But all and all, I feel it was an excellent event, and the regional should continue to be held there in future years.
