There is a whole community of regular folks and families who live and even worship here (yes we have actual churches and weddings without Elvis) and even a growing technological community. Sure we are a city of 2 million with the same challenges you find in other large cities...even St. Louis where I feel less safe than here.For those of you with enlightened superintendents and principals, and planning to attend, expect another well run regional event and a great time in and outside of the venue. The level of competition is going to be outstanding (check out the list of many "top 20" teams signed up). If you can't join us, be sure to catch another webcast sponsored by Team 987!

Las Vegas really is well run event, routinely the most pleasant and fun we attend in any given year. It's hard to say exactly what they do right... it's just nice.

For us was a real tossup this year between LV and CV this year for our 2nd regional, CV was great but from what I'm hearing LV is also stellar. I'm sure we'll see you guys at LA again, can't wait to see what you build

Team 341 is really excited about attending the LVR this year.
Having met some really nice folks from 987 at Champs last year, convinced me that they are a class act. The list of teams is just fun, including 5 international teams. The only thing we are struggling with right now is that airfares are very high for that weekend. But I am sure we will get it figured out. We are looking forward to making some new friends in Las Vegas!

2 years ago we were going to register for Waterloo until our administration said no international travel. We were surprised that this included Canada.
