Re: 2007 FRC Events, where are you going?
Our team will be attending Arizona as usual, and we are for certain attending one other event. We'll either be going to SoCal, Las Vegas, San Diego, or The Championships. If we're really lucky we'll go to 2 of these events, but with how fundraising has gone so far I don't think that will happen.

Re: 2007 FRC Events, where are you going?
If all (or most) of the pending teams register, Arizona and Finger Lakes will be the only US regionals not filled. I don't believe I've ever seen the regional list so full before.

Re: 2007 FRC Events, where are you going?
Believe it or not, Chesapeake almost always opens up additional spots for teams who want to go after the deadline. We usually get 11 or 12 teams in addition to the first 54 and I know there were several teams pending that could not get in (by the time 2199 registerred) (204, 224, 1676, 1895, 1975 namely). There might be some teams coming in, who may decide in the last minute to go as we are actually 1 under our original limit. (2 teams left: 2086 left to join 1893 and 2088 is building up for next year.) So in theory, there is one more spot (regularly open). 53 teams means way too much room! (The current venue fits 70 teams comfortably, with plenty of stands/pit room left (unless TJ2 comes again). The only problem is needing a second field. There were 65 last year and I think 60 in 2005 and the regional has averaged over 60 teams since 2004. Just food for thought and something to tell FIRST to open up Chesapeake Regional

Re: 2007 FRC Events, where are you going?
Looks like Toronto just moved up to a strong possibility for team 1403's 2nd regional. We would be honored to play with our friends to the north.

Re: 2007 FRC Events, where are you going?
New regionals seem to always bring some more teams from longer distances. That's why I'm sad that I won't be in SD next year... Hopefully my school's schedule will permit me to volunteer and maybe even fly home! Anywho, team 812 has been rooting for San Diego regional for so long; I don't think they/we really have a choice.

(I was inclined to add "as usual" to the end, but I thought that might send the wrong impression; I had nothing but a blast while I was in the city last month. I sure wouldn't mind looking into it as a regional to spectate and volunteer at.) |

Re: 2007 FRC Events, where are you going?
1923, although this sounds odd, is most likely doing philly. One of the reasons is because of family conflicts [my father judges chairman's for NJ....] & also because NJ is a regional with AMAZING amazing teams, playing at a level our team's not quite ready for. [not that philly area teams aren't amazing as well :-)] We figure we give something new a try. it's about the same distance from our school to either regional, so it's not a huge travel expense.

Re: 2007 FRC Events, where are you going?
Hey Libby, we love to have your team come compete with us at the Philadelphia Regional. I always like the competition that comes out of Philly.

Re: 2007 FRC Events, where are you going?
Championships and.... ??? We don't know yet. Could be Midwest, Boilermaker, West Michigan, Great Lakes, Detroit, Cleveland, St. Louis, or Wisconsin. I'd like to go back to Midwest but Cleveland could be fun and we've had great luck at St. Louis. Update to come when the team gets around to deciding where we want to go. But The Championship is a definite. I might not be at any competition though. Makes me sad.
