Greater Kansas City has always been a great and memorable event since it's creation in 2007. Last year it changed locations to Metropolitan Community College. Plus, and someone please correct me if I'm wrong and this was discontinued with the venue change, they do a pancake breakfast one morning with Chris Cakes whose owner Steve Hamilton formerly held the Guinness Book of World Records record for flipping the most pancakes in 1 hour (956 if you were curious). As I just discovered his record was broken last year.

I was unable to attend last year due to moving out of the area so I'm unsure of how the new venue is set up. That being said, the RPC and the KC STEM Alliance who house KC FIRST are absolutely wonderful in making great events. Although I might be a bit biased as I worked closely with both organizations as a volunteer before I moved.
