Re: FIRST Chesapeake Districts

If we're posting things, here's something that wasn't considered or ever received.

The FIRST Colonial Region celebrates the heritage of the United States while looking to the future.



The eight stars represent the 8 original events the region will begin with. 7 districts, and one championship. The cannonade in the center represents one of the major technical achievements used in the Revolutionary War. The gear on the outside is... self explanatory. I picked faded shades of traditional FIRST colors because well, the crayola colors looked gross.

In addition, each of the 8 events received a variant of the logo. Here is the first one I found, the Capital District.



One thing that has always annoyed me about the district system is how names are so easily dropped and added because a district moved 5 miles east or west. The area has a very rich history and very distinguishable parts that make up the region, so these distinct districts get distinct names. As long as the district stayed in the general area, the name wouldn't change. The Old Line District (western MD) and the Harbor District (eastern MD) are in Maryland, The Capital District is in DC, and Virginia has the Metro (NoVA), Shenandoah (Western VA), Commonwealth (Central VA), and Dominion (eastern VA) Districts.

For the championship, the logo is gold because... well, because.
