Re: Competitions and Holidays

As someone trying to organize a regional on the Easter Weekend, believe me, it's frustrating! Especially since Good Friday seems to be a bigger deal up here than it is in the US. Not only are we having our rookie regional on Easter, but it's also March Break for our biggest catchment area, AND the only weekend in the season with 7 regionals!

As a result, we have the smallest regional going, but it's going to be great anyways!

I agree with other posters, though: it's not FIRST's fault that Easter comes so early this year. And since events are always on weekends, whenever Easter comes early it will coincide with a FIRST weekend. I'm not sure what drives the choice of the Championship weekend, but I'm pretty sure FIRST would take into account religious holidays if they could.
