2007 FRC Events, where are you going?

[Imajie]

195 is at least going going to UTC and the Championships, more if our fundraising will let us.

[ewankoff]

we are definetly going to NJ and were looking forward to see all our NJ friends there

also we are possibly going to show up at either Palmetto or Boston. scales are tipping toward Boston at the moment but no final decision yet.

this year we're are only going to go to the championship if we qualify at a regional and we are definatly aiming to do that.

We (if we get the money) will be going to the VCU Regional in Richmond.

Our plans changed... We're still not exactly sure where we're going to go this year.

Just had a meeting with the team yesterday. Team 1345, Platinum Dragons will be at the Florida and the Boston Regional. If we qualify, we are going to rock the house at Championship 2007. Looking forward to another gracious and successful season.

Team 87 will be attending the Chesapeake and Philadelphia regional this year. We were very upset to hear that we wouldn't be attending NJ regional, but due to scheduling and budgetary issues, it wasn't possible this year.

But we can't wait to see everyone at Chesapeake and Philly!!

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

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.

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."

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!

[DotCom]

Davis! And Siilicon Valley, if we can get the money.

[Jeff Waegelin]

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).

Unfortunately due to some political run arounds within our organization, Eagle Corps Robotics Team 1158 had to withdrawn from the Florida Regional. It it unfortunate that politics have to been involved when it comes to a students' possible future. But we still plan on going to the Denver Regional to defend out title, and also return to the Arizona Regional. Bring the season on. Good luck everyone.

[Jonathan Norris]

610 will be going to the BAE SYSTEMS Granite State Regional, then the Waterloo Regional, and finally, as always, we will be attending the Greater Toronto Regional to finish off our 2007 season. Look out for us at any of these regionals. It looks like we will be the only international team in New Hampshire so you'll be hearing from us there

it's too bad that you won't be able to come to florida. it's always a great regional and we were looking forward to showing you all around. good luck in denver. i'd really like to go back again but we usually go to a different 2nd regional each year - we're thinking about las vegas this year.

[Kit Gerhart]

We're going to:

Florida Regional
Las Vegas Regional (probably)
Championship
