2007 FRC Events, where are you going?

[(Click_Here)]

578 is aiming for 3 regionals this year as well as some extra money for the championship event if we can. Where will we go?... were still debating about it, we will go to finger lakes. But theres a chance we won't be going to boston this year.

We have talked about New York City, and the Chicago Regional I know.

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!

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.

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.

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.

Hmmmm.... party anyone?

Awesome!

NYC had only 33 teams last year, we could sure use some more

395's most likely going to new york, pittsburgh, and hopefully atlanta.

Our team will most likely be heading back to St. louis and Milwaukee. This still depends on when they are and if they interfere with our springbreak.

Is the florida regional on springbreak? I was wondering because our school band is going to florida for springbreak and was just wondering if there was any chance we could stop in and see some competition.

Band geek + FIRST geeks = uberparty!

45 will go to the Boilermaker regional for sure, our second is a toss up still, most likely it will be in the midwest somewhere. So, Midwest, GLR, WMR, St. Louis or Cleveland. But as we did last year, we went to GTR, which was a great time, but a really long drive. Basically, we don't know yet, heck, it hasn't even came up yet. But, The Championships we will go to for sure!

Florida regional is always during UCF's (University of Central Florida) spring break. Florida regional and the teams welcome you to come down and join us.

I dunno about Baker, but I sure as hell am...

edit: on the topic of this thread, I don't know exactly which events I will be going to (depends on school and transportation), but hopefully I will be going to the Florida Regional and the Championship.

... scared of the weather, or of the Floridians? Surely you aren't scared of a mild-mannered Indiana pig farmer?

/edit/ Early indications are that St. Louis will be the first weekend (1-3) of March. /edit/

"One day".. each user (and team) will have a page on CD-Events that lists this. I wish I had free time.

Being within reasonable driving distance is an important factor for us. The team is large enough that we'd really rather not deal with airline fares.

If the schedule permits it, I'm going to put my vote on the Midwest regional. We really missed playing with our near north neighbors this year.
