I think the Friday to Sunday is only in NYC. These are the best dates availability at this venue.

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.

[Qbranch]

we'll be at phoenix and/or Cleavland as well as boilermaker.

see you there... wonder what the game will be...

[Jeremiah Johnson]

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.

[Donut]

We're going to the Championships if we can afford it; if not then San Diego. Yeah new regionals!

As 116 won't decide at least until school starts, I can't tell you where we will be going. But I can say that the NASA/VCU (Virginia) Regional is by far my favorite regional I have attended (VCU, Chesepeake, Philly, Denver, Peachtree). The Siegal Center is a near perfect venue. 64+ teams. Great spirit, great team party (at the Science Museum, and this year they had Krispy Kremes! ). The best MC in FIRST (Jeff Seaton). It has been a Week 1 Regional the past few years, so that can be positive and negative. But it also means that alot of times it can be the focus of attention (as it was this year, as the only week 1 regional webcasted), and many FIRST "celebs" attend to scope out that year's game.
The one problem is if VCU and NJ stay on the same weekend, they will both be Week 1 regionals next year So then 1403 couldn't come.
But we encourage everyone else to!
If 116 continues as it has, we will likely attend 2 competitions, most likely a local one and one further away. Hopefully our 2nd competition will be Championship, if not then we might make the trip to somewhere like Peachtree, Pittsburgh, Philly, NJ, Buckeye, or NYC. Of course we could goto both VCU and Chesepeake, like we did in 03 and 04. Who knows.

I am not talking on my team's behalf but we probably will do the local competition this year as always either Detroit or Great Lakes and the Championships, but for the rest, I don't know the past two years we have done three regionals. In 05' we did Detroit, Pittsburgh, and West Michigan, and in 06' we went to Great Lakes, Detroit, and West Michigan along with the Championships both years. I don't know officially until school starts when the team leaders decide where we want to go. Wherever you all decide to go Good Luck and happy competition to all.

166 is definately going to GSR. We go every year.

We've been alternating whether we go to a second regional, or nationals. We went to nationals this past year, so we're most likely going to another regional next year.

Personally, I'd like to go to either the LA regional, or GLR.

[draconar]

1379 will be at Peachtree, as usual, and we're hopefully going to Palmetto also. If all goes well, maybe we'll be at the Dome as well.

[DanDon]

So...........anyone planning on going to the NYC regional? Or at least thinking?

Party in the Javits Center!!

[deshirider430]

for 612 this year was our first going to 2 regionals (VCU, Annapolis) and also went to nationals, it was lots of fun going to 2 regionals so were thinking about going to 2 again

[MChapman]

176...definently UTC Hartford and most likely BAE...but that could change. And of course the Championships! What a blast we had everywhere we went.

[Marcel]

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.

[AndyB]

Hometown Wisconsin Regional and hopefully Toronto for the first time.

It will be an awesome year.

[LightWaves1636]

Team 1636 is going to the Colorado Regionals, since of course it's our home regional, as for a second, we've never done one and I don't know if our team wants to(most likely), but it depends on, of course, money.
