It's like a second Christmas for me or whatever holiday!

FTFY Couldn't agree more! I'll be there one day.

I do want to volunteer at some more events this year and travel to one on week 3 as my idea of a really off the rails spring break

The Purdue District. I've been attending the Boilermaker Regional since I was a high school freshman 2008, and as a current student at Purdue, I'm excited to see that they're making use of the new Rec Center rather than the Armory, which was too small for the event.

This and for me, the other 3 Indiana events this coming year, all of which I'm volunteering for.

PS- I too have been to boilermaker since my freshman year of 2008.

Re: What 2015 Events Are You Looking Forward To?

Dallas right now is signed up to have 3 past world champions, a ton of teams that did really well at Worlds and IRI, and then you still have the rest of the roster that looks amazing! I know personally I can't wait for Dallas! Can't wait to see all the amazing robots! Good luck to all teams.

Re: What 2015 Events Are You Looking Forward To?

I can't wait for MAR Champs this year. We qualified for the first time last season, and it was really exciting! I can't wait to return (hopefully) with a bit more experience.

The Championship Event. I heard it was pretty exciting last year. I figure I shouldn't miss it again.

The 2015 FIRST Championship. I hope to see FLL and FTC flourish more now that they don't have to compete with FRC for the spotlight.
