Also, I'm sort of doubting the inflatable games social will be approved, given the reasons for the current restrictions on dancing at socials.
Note that I'm not trying to be all negative, just pointing out stuff you'll need to consider for some of those ideas.
Palmetto had wireless access, granted most teams did not know about it, but it was convenient for getting information as quickly as possible. I think I will pass on rementioning the "No Dancing" issue. However, one problem I have noticed at all of the regionals I have ever attended is a lack of projection screens in the pits. Perhaps the best fix for this is to not just do the one that is standard, but put one on each corner of the pits, this would hopefully prevent some of the major traffic jams that were caused at Palmetto this year.
