Re: 2007 FRC Events, where are you going?
The CircuitRunners will be definately going to Peachtree as usual. Hopefully Sir Charles will be there again.
A couple of us seniors might go down to volunteer at the New Orleans regional. Most of us aren't having tough 2nd semesters so we will be able to hopefully do that. No idea where else we will b competeing. Maybe VCU. |

Re: 2007 FRC Events, where are you going?
Well Ramtech (Team 59) is going to the Las Vegas regionals, I heard the spirit is awesome there so competition there but we have a secret weapon! Haha! Anyways I doubt we'll go to nationals this year since las vegas is far meaning more money or something. o.o
But next year is my last year and I want to go to nationals again that team social was just off the sprocket. |

regional since they are back to back we are a little concerned that the robot may not make it to Vegas. Should we be worried. |

Re: 2007 FRC Events, where are you going?
You will need to arrange for expedited shipping of your crate. It will be an added cost that you have to be prepared for. It's sometimes very expensive. There are other considerations to think of such as getting time off from work (for your mentors/chaperones) and time off from school (for your students) two weeks in a row.
From the 2006 game manual, "6.6.4 Back-to-Back Events Contact the Drayage Company(s) well before both competitions to see if it can/will extend the crate arrival deadline for your team. You must use the Shepard Exposition Services’ designated shipper. You cannot use FedEx in this case, because FedEx does not pick up at events on Saturdays and your robot will not make the competition on time. You must make all arrangements early to have your robot ship and arrive on time." |

Re: 2007 FRC Events, where are you going?
My team... once created and such... will probably only be able to go to St. Louis regional. I would choose KC, but I think we have midterms during that week!

Re: 2007 FRC Events, where are you going?
Team 830 is definitely going to Great Lakes Regional. We're also planning to go to St. Louis, the Championship (if we get in), and maybe Waterloo (if we get funding for a 3rd regional).

Re: 2007 FRC Events, where are you going?
Team 1636 is going to Colorado Regional. Yay! Plus the team has been thinking of going to a second regional. It's been a unanimous vote for Arizona but then again there's no real telling because we're still looking for new sponsors but it's looking good.

For example, if you tried to ship from NY to CA for back to back regionals, it's not going to get there on time, without you paying extra. Interesting fact--6/10 robots that tried to do back to back regionals in different time zones weren't there on thursday morning last year. |

Re: 2007 FRC Events, where are you going?
FLR and the championship for the X-Cats.
We are very predictable. My personal schedule depends on my vacation time and my wife's mood about me going to FIRST events ( I would like to attend an event in week 1 and possibly GTR again). |

Re: 2007 FRC Events, where are you going?
1249 will be back at Palmetto. We really enjoyed last year our first at that region. As for the other regional, Pittsburgh if they have one or back to the Buckeye in Cleveland. Depending on funding, we would like to go to championships, we have a group of seniors that started this team four years ago and would like to take them back to Atlanta.
