And because of spring break timing and the easter holiday, it's not real easy to do it in the middle of the month. So, end of April becomes the only alternative.

I find that interesting because I was under the impression that none (or almost none) of the regional facilities contracts had been signed yet. Perhaps I'm mistaken or perhaps they already know the available dates. But I still say FIRST needs to hire more staff.
