Yes, we will have use of the Exhibit Hall - a huge space - for the FRC competition Thurs - Sat, the FVC regional competition on Friday and FLL scrimmmage on Saturday... and meeting rooms upstairs for Judges' Interviews, etc.

It's huge. A nice fact is it's literally right next to the loading dock (You could drive a truck up a ramp on the loading dock and be into it)
Directions for unloading toolboxes, etc. will be published to the Regional's website as soon as we confirm a few details... www.newenglandregional.org

The only thing I'm a bit worried about is food there.. I didn't see any food stands or anything, except for a Starbucks stand.. so we are going to have to go into the area around it? While I realize they may set up food stands there.. they aren't always the easiest to get to (long lines.. high prices).
There are two consessions stands at the back of the Exhibit Hall which can handle a lot of food quickly; the food is of good quality and moderately priced; again, stay tuned as we put more details up on the website as they become available.
