I hope it isn't April 24-26. That's during our district's Spring Break. It could be quite difficult to get our team together to go to Nationals then. Of course, the weekend before that is bad, too (Easter), and APs come the next week (I think).

I guess that those reasons lead to my guess of the 24th to the 26th

But the point is to miss as much school as possible! Nats during spring break takes that away....

Want to know how many people come to WDW for Spring Break over that period? LOTS. I mean the 4th buisest time of the year there.

I remember bragging about how I missed 12 days of school (last year)- but I sure hope it doesn't happen this year.. if i miss even one day of a class I'm screwed- it'd be nice if nats were during spring break...


those darn colleges that put too much emphasis on junior years in high school...

Ok I'm going to go out on a limb and name a place nobody else has named yet Boston, Mass for a return to the northeast. Site being held at Bayside Expo Center. My main reason being is that I think FIRST is looking for more publicity and Boston might be able to do that in Boston. Bayside Expo Center just recently held Pro Tour Boston for the Magic the Gathering card game in which thousands went to that event so I don't see why the usual set up wouldn't work in Boston. Only thing that worries me is the out of state people driving in Boston goodluck and when you cross the street and you see the car coming run back to the sidewalk because that car isn't stopping.

I have heard a lot mentioned about a dome, so my guess is the dome - the Skydome in Toronoto
