New Regionals for 2007

[Andrew Rudolph]

Wow, being a relatively new Louisiana resident this is some exciting news! I would love to help out with the regional planning if anyone asks for help.

I visited New Orleans for Mardi Gras last year (hey it was free) and many of the touristy areas were mostly cleaned up. Unless it gets hit hard again it would Definitely be prepared for a regional.

Well here in San Diego we're gearing up to put together a great regional, though we can't share any details as of yet.

They aren't 100% official, as venues, contracts and some sponsors are still being confirmed - but those are the three being planned for if everything falls into place.

So there isn't a Brazillian regional happening after all?

I think there needs to be a European FIRST regional to encourage the creation of European teams. It would also be a good FIRST step in getting Department of Defense Schools involved.

Regional in South Lousiana????

Robots, gumbo and boudin....

It doesn't get any better than that.

I can't wait to see where the venue is.
