2006 Wisconsin Regional

[Ricky Q.]

Quick update on the WI Regional:

The Social now features 2 Bands: The Briggs Bluesbusters will be opening for DSATKB.

This Briggs & Stratton house band has 11 members (eight are company employees), including John Shiely, chairman, president and CEO, as rhythm guitarist. The Bluesbusters have opened for top bands including: The Beach Boys, Ray Charles, Blood, Sweat & Tears and James Brown. They have also competed in Fortune Magazine's Corporate Battle of the Bands at the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, finishing #2 in the competition. The band plays covers by soul and blues-based rock artists as well as the company anthem "Briggs & Stratton Man."

Also it looks like we will be grilling up over 3,000 Wisconsin brats and hot dogs. This will be the Largest FIRST Tailgate ever.

We also now have some very special guests committed to the regional. You will have to wait and see who those will be.

For teams attending, look for an email after Ship Day with more regional details such as social directions, venue parking, and things of that sort.
