Charging for Parking at Regionals.
Do they charge for parking at your regional event(s)? If so, how much. At SoCal, it was $8 to park for each day.

If you ask me, charging for parking at a FIRST regional event is just plain wrong. Nobody has money and everybody needs money. First of all, the thing is free to get into. Second, why should a parent have to pay to come see their student competing? That arena is full of people who will one day make the world a better place. The arena is also full of spectators who hope these people will one day make the world a better place. Why must we pay to park to make the world a better place?
