I mis-copied the coordinate.
I'll fix that.
They don't identify any location other than a town, so it's just a general coordinate.

Let me know of any others you may notice.

Thanks

The team from Brazil that's "missing" (so far) lost its local J&J sponsorship and is very close to really having to drop out. I traded PMs with their lead mentor, urging him to ask for ideas here on CD, so I hope we get to see that soon.

Of note: 1482 and 4334 from Calgary, AB (the only western Canada vets), aren't yet registered for the new Western Canada regional.

Assuming they registered elsewhere, it is a common tactic to not sign up first for a regional that you're pretty sure you'll get in for second registration

But 1482 isn't registered for a 2013 regional and has only ever attended one per year.

Sounds like someone in the area needs to reach out to them

4334 is currently registered for the now-full Seattle Regional.

[lemiant]

Our plan is to register for Seattle, Central Washington, and Western Canada in that order. We are doing this because we want to register for the regionals which are filling up first.
I can't imagine 1482 folding, I have many friends leading that team and they seem to think the season is still on track. Additionally they are and always have been a well-funded team with a budget upwards of 20K, which should last much better now that they don't have to travel. I'll send an email over to their coach anyways.

I fully expected that's what ATA was doing, since I know they were instrumental in the creation of the western Canada regional on such a short schedule, it would be odd for 4334 not to compete there.

1482 is interesting though. Not sure what their historical registration timing looks like though. They could just have a habit of registering late. Additionally, having a home regional might finally allow 1482 to join the ranks of the 2 regional teams.

EDIT: Also, Ontario will miss you, 4334. Best of luck in 2013.

REEDIT: I wonder if any ON/QC teams will take the plunge and head out to Calgary to tango with all our new Canadian rookies.

[Mark McLeod]

1482 registered last year on October 21.
In 2010 they didn't register until late November.
