Re: Bag and Tag Events List
With the usual competition for slots at regionals when registation opens, I'd sure want to know in advance what kind of arrangements FRCTeams was proposing for a bag and tag event I was thinking of shipping to. There might be some arrangements we don't like the sound of or that don't work with our travel plans. I could imagine some venues where they would expect you to ship your robot to the corner of some donated warehouse, unpack your crate, rent a truck, bring the robot to the event and then reverse the process on the way out. Not our idea of fun!

Personally I think every regional should have a procedure for how inbound and outbound crate shipping works at their event published in advance. That way you could decide before using up your first choice regional pick if that was something you liked the sound of.
