Lots of teams with questions and hope there is some guidance before Sept. 30. Shipping costs are always one of the decision points in choosing an event.
Seeing that DC, VA and chesapeake are all not back to back to back like last year, is a good thing. I believe that you can bag your robot at Chesapeake, and bring it to DC in a truck. That should reduce shipping costs (If FedEx is still a sponsor, it should be free) so you can do two regionals.
