this year was just right

Since I teach an AP course I have a real interest in the Nats not conflicting or coming too close to the AP exams. This year the Nats were during our April break so none of the kids (or me) had to miss any classes. This really made it easier to get all the permissions we needed to go. I hope it works this way next year.

I suspect that there will be more regionals on a given week end. Not all the week ends had the same number of regionals so it is possible. Plus there are more people trained to run regionals every year. While it is nice to have Dean or Woody (Woody is REALLY great at a regional - I haven't seen Dean at one) at a regional but they are not required.
