Well i must admit this for going off topic lsightly earlier.... but yeah, form a support base for area teams. Then from there you could have a subornitate group to put together a regional. However, let's working on supporting one another first and then and only then worrry about a regional event here. I think we'd all agree that more teams, perhaps even more teams, from Mass. would be better than a regional (ok don't yell at me) that come back every year and compete.
Now what I want to do is drive our bot through Qunicy Market holding a garbage pail (we proved we could do this at Freshman Open House) with a sign on it that says donate too FIRST Robotics.......
but that's another story.
