Re: 2007 FRC Events, where are you going?

Team 296 will probably be going to one of the New England regionals, the Greater Toronto Regional, and, I should hope, the Championship (so as to not waste the first time we ever pre-qualified on merit).

I have no clue which events I'll be going to personally - I'll be on a co-op work term during the 2007 season, so what regionals I'll go to, if any, depends on the location and nature of the job I get.

Re: 2007 FRC Events, where are you going?

Palmetto, no question. (Half a mile away or a thousand miles away, they don't call it the best regional in the South for nothing.) Championship would be awesome, and I hope to attend with or without the team.

I'm also hopeful that I'll be able to go down to the Florida Regional for a third year as a spectator/volunteer, but that depends on USC's spring break.

Re: 2007 FRC Events, where are you going?

For sure we'll be going to the new San Diego regional. We've also talked about either making our first appearance at the LA regional or returning to Las Vegas, money being the deciding factor.

Just out of curiousity, are there any other teams that are considering coming to San Diego?

Re: 2007 FRC Events, where are you going?

I definately will be at New Orleans. I have friends in both Houston and Columbia so I may try to go to Lone Star or Palmetto too. It's still a long way off, so nothing is set in stone yet.

Las Vegas is a great regional to go to. 25 went there this past year, and the atmosphere was great. Everyone was really helpful and friendly, and they make it very "Las Vegas-y" by having Elvis impersonators and everything. I had a lot of fun there, as did the rest of our team. Also, there was tons to do at night (if we weren't too tired).

If I had the chance to go there again, I definitely would do it!

Re: 2007 FRC Events, where are you going?

Although nothing has been decided yet, it's a safe bet to say that 587 will be back at VCU. If we have the money, we'll go to the championship. If, in the unlikely event that we have the money to do it, a second regional over spring break could occur, assuming that our spring break and the event's time are the same this year, that would probably be Palmetto.

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.

That's what we heard. Traditionally we went to phoenix (for reasons lost on me) and I've been to convince them to go to vegas instead because both are about the same distance away from us and have similar overall prices. It's hard to change tradition though, sometimes mentors just don't like change : /, but we like 'em anyway.

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.

571 is trying to raise the money to take the trip all the way from Connecticut! We'll also be at the Hartford regional, and depending on our money situation we will either attend Championships or send a group of volunteers.

Team 1641 would like to attend the San Diego regional and the Las Vegas
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.
