If someone hasn't gotten back to you, you can find the team list on the FIRST web site under Regional Events, and scroll down to the Chesapeake Regional.

The VIP list continues to grow from the United State Cabinet, the heads of major corporations, Government representatives, major grant making organizations and of course, all the VIP's associated with teams-your sponsors and the champions for your teams. We want to roll out the red carpet for each and every one of them, and will have different systems of "handling" because we have so many. There will also be lots of media at the event.

We will be using lots of "Student Ambassadors" this year and will be making assignments. Please email me the names of any students interested in being "Ambassadors." There will be a brief training on Thursday. We cannot adjust the match schedule, so best if they are not key for the drive team. jbeatty@usfirst.org
It is going to be a lot of fun!

Welcome to all the Chesapeake Regional Volunteers!

* We have a long list of VIP's and media attending the event this year.
* We are looking for FIRST alumni who would be willing to be interviewed or talk to VIP's.
* Although I know many of you, please send me your name, your former team #, former team name/location, teams you have mentored and your present job or year in college.

Thanks and see you soon.

I will be at the Chesapeake Regional as one of your Lead Team Queuers. Come and say hi.

The final decision has been made, I'll be at Chesapeake on Saturday possibly filming a live FIRSTcast. I'll be in the old skool 384 garb (blue shirt, khaki's, and orange hat.)

Be sure to read the access info on the www.chesapeakefirst.org website. Parking at the Stadium with shuttle buses to Halsey Field House (about 2 miles). Or park in Annapolis and walk through Gate 1 and then through New pass and id building.

Things are going to be a little cosy this year but all are welcome!
VIP events mostly on Friday, so Sat. is a good choice.

Thank you for the advice I will pass this along... Hopefully my dad and I don't get lost of too confused when we get there haha. Otherwise there will be a SOS for two 102 members

I'm sorry if this has been mentioned already, but is the Chesapeake Regional going to be webcasted? If yes, what's the link. Thanks.

[StephLee]

I'm pretty sure it's not being webcasted. I wish it was, some family members back home wanted to watch like they did the first year.

[Vashts6583]

I don't even think its going to be on NASA TV like it has in the past.
