Re: [FRC Blog] 2015 Events are Being Posted!

People are suggesting this GTR Central is a sixth Ontario regional. It may very well be, but I've not seen anything to suggest that it isn't simply a renaming of GTR West, which was somewhat of a misnomer in 2014 based on its location East of Yonge.

Anybody seen any evidence yet that there will be GTR East (Oshawa) West (Mississauga somewhere?) and Central (Mattamy Athletic Center [formerly Maple Leaf Gardens])?

Just a guess: I've heard rumors of adding another event in Minnesota, and maybe this makes the schedule nicer.

Seems more likely it was just when the venue was available (it's a really nice venue).

From my understanding they had a scheduling conflict at the DECC arena. Which is probably hockey related or some other big convention.

But many teams hate week one events with a passion.

Last year, we purposely chose a week 1 event to light a fire under our buts and get a robot built. Turns out, it worked really well. I. Don't think we had ever bagged a complete robot before this year. There was something we always had to take in our allowance.

I can guarantee there won't be a 5th regional in Minnesota this year. We all want one (especially with space at our current regionals getting to be so tight), but we don't have everything in place for one yet.

Re: [FRC Blog] 2015 Events are Being Posted!

I know there are a number of venues that already have had contracts on them for months, but it's weird the dates for them have not popped up. Is there some sort of vetting process RPCs have to go through with HQ to get them on the schedule?

According to the FIRST Calendar by September 25th we'll all know what events are when because that's when initial registration opens up.

Bayou still hasn't been added to the list official list, but the venue has been booked and the regional director has told us it will be March 19-21, 2015 at the Pontchartrain Center in Kenner, Louisiana. This makes it a week 4 regional.
