As of right now there are seven American teams signed up for Toronto.

I'm under the impression that Woburn (188) is going to California, but as is stands right now they're only registered for Waterloo and Pittsburgh. I take this to mean they're doing 3 regionals this year. Steve or Jeff, care to clarify?

Re: American Teams Coming To Canada

That is correct. Waterloo, Pittsburgh and SoCal. I don't think that 188 will be going to Championships for the first time in our history. IF we win a regional, well ...................

Re: American Teams Coming To Canada

Hopefully a few more American teams will consider registering for the Canadian events... how many regionals can boast having Karthik on their Regional Planning Committee? A definite bonus and guarantee for a good show. Can't make any promises about the singing, though...

Re: American Teams Coming To Canada

I'd like to extend a big welcome to Team 1188, INA AUTOMOYIVE & Royal Oak High School, the first American team to sign up for the Waterloo Regional. We look forward to seeing you. Hopefully this will be the start of a trend.

Talking Re: American Teams Coming To Canada

My team is one of the teams going to Canada. We're signed up to go to Toronto. That makes three regionals and Championships, but we may go to Toronto instead of Cleveland. it'll work bet for our team since a few chaporons (sp?) won't be able to go to because its easter weekend. We also promised the team next to us in Atlanta that we'd go. i can't remember their team number but I do rember that they are the huskies. See you all in Canada.

The Huskies are Team 1112, one of the 2004 Canadian Regional champions.

I'm glad to hear that your team is making the trip. We look forward to having you.

Ah yes I remember for more than one reason. If you want to know more ask someone who was there. I haven't bet since.
