Re: Milwaukee

From http://www.usfirst.org/robotics/2006/rgevents.htm, the regional will be the 23-25 of March. They have yet to post any more new info, but if you keep checking that website, that's where it will be.

Re: Milwaukee

The inagural Wisconsin Regional will indeed be held on March 23-25, 2006 in Milwaukee at the US Cellular Arena. Look for a website from the regional planning committee soon for more information.

Thank you for the information and for everyone that replied to my question. We are very interested in attending the Milwaukee Regional as it is much closer to our location and we have found the Midwest Regional to be very positive. If the Milwaukee Regional can accommodate us we would be very interested in attending it this next season.

Team 1163

Re: Milwaukee

Question,

Any particular reason there are only going to be 25 slots open initially? I would think there are many more teams that will be interested in attending this regional (Team 857 included) than that. Is there the expectation that a large number of rookie teams will be popping up this season in the Milwaukee Metro or Wisconsin Areas?

Thanks.

Re: Milwaukee

As a first year regional, we want to keep the number small and manageable so we can figure out what to do! So if you do come to the event (we hope you do!) and you like it, tell your friends! The venue can accomodate a much larger number of teams, so in the coming years, this regional will surely grow.

This article was posted today...its great to see Milwaukee getting into the FIRST spirit so quickly =) http://www.jsonline.com/bym/news/sep05/357562.asp

Re: Milwaukee

Just a heads up to all those still thinking about the Wisconsin Regional for their 2nd regional registration choice. 10 rookie and 10 veteran NASA grants are avaliable to teams to pay for their registration costs to the WI Regional.

More info on the NASA grants is avaliable here:

There are actually a few of them. The one that sticks out most prominantly in my mind is team 1732. They have a wonderful and very functional machine.

There are quite a few good rookie teams here and of course the 'usual suspects' of the veterans. It's going to be a great competition tomorrow!

Re: Wisconsin Regional - Milwaukee 2006

So what's happening in Wisconsin so far?? How's things lookin'? The FIRST site doesn't have any of this week's regional match result/standings/awards links up yet. Don't know why, those links should all be setup and ready to go... and after 3 weeks, the automatic updates should work by now..... sigh.

Re: Wisconsin Regional - Milwaukee 2006

Tyler Olds is doing a pretty rocking job at announcing It's so cool that Paul & Dan are giving him some time on the mic!

It seems like the competition is going how last week did, some great offensive bots but a whole lot of defense as well.
