Unfortunately PARC had to be ultimately canceled last year due to lack of attending teams and we decided this year not to continue PARC.

Will PARC return at some point? Perhaps.

The are multiple reasons why this decision was made.

PARC was always held the day before Mothers Day. As FIRST grew the date of Championships got pushed back making PARC be too soon after Championships. Changing the date also isn't just a simple as changing the date because of the dates of other off seasons and other events taking place such as proms and school testing.

Also there is only a partial handful of teams within one and a half hours from our event. This means that other teams that want to attend must travel between 2 and 4+ hours to get to us which some teams do not want to do because they can attend many other off season events within a short distance from their home base.

Also as it was mentioned that PARC was NOT the first off season event. However, PARC did set a high standard for other off season events and was running continuously from 1998 to 2010.

222 will still continue to support and attend other off seasons in our area.

Hi Jim,
We are currently in the process of finalizing the venue for the event. Once we get the venue finalized we will have a date set. Right now the best I can give you is that we are looking at mid October as the time frame for Ruckus. Please contact me if you would like anymore information and feel free to check the Ruckus website after Championships for updates.

Thanks!

Re: 2012 Off Season Events Locations?

The video stream for the 2012 Connect A Million Minds FIRST Robotics Invitational (Saturday June 23, 2012) will be housed at: http://www.vid.etechohio.net/

It is our understanding that they will keep the link up for a while afterward. As usual, we will burn a DVD for each of the participating teams (and we are going with a different crew than last year, with one result being that the DVDs should be available much more quickly).

Re: 2012 Off Season Events Locations?

I also believe the Big Apple off-season event is going to return for 2012, but I am not certain. It is hosted at Francis Lewis High School by team 3017 and it is usually held in mid October.

Re: 2012 Off Season Events Locations?

It is not in the Mid Atlantic Region but the WMRI is in south west lower Michigan.
It is a one day Saturday event. We are limited to 24 teams but would love to have some teams from outside Michigan compete. We will be giving away 2 FRC batteries, A Multi Battery Charger and a Battery Beak as door prizes. We have reserved one of these for the team that travels the farthest. Check out the following link for further details and registration.
