I really hope so. We were really looking forward to trying out a new regional and visiting you guys out east. I suppose it's just a matter of waiting and seeing what happens.

174

This is 174's Atlanta year. We always go to Buckeye and we interchange Atlanta and FLR. Not sure why we rather dive an additional 5 hours...but I think we do better and those at Buckeye remember us more. It's all the way the Teacher Mentors see it...

I, however, will be at FLR and be volunteering again (and holding some things to give out...like cards...hee hee)

See Ed, no magic just guessing. I hope to see you guys down in ATL then. Have fun in Ohio.

The regional is filled (2 more than last year) & you guys aren't on the list.

Apparently Victor made the same exact move as my team did. I know for certain that it's very expensive for Fairport's team to travel anywhere, because of the massive team size of 60 students.

Fairports aware of the problem, and they are going to try and see what they can do within the next week. Accepting such a large team is going to be very challenging for Finger Lakes so we will see what happens. Hopefully Fairport/Victor can get in, they are 20 minutes away from the RIT Campus.

I can't wait! FLR is such an awesome regional and I have had so much fun the past two years I have been there!

[demps45]

We, Team 378, are looking forward to the FLR and seeing all our local friends there. We are also attending the Greater Toronto Regional. Good luck to all!

[rw55ryan]

Team 2228 will be there.

[Shelbo]

Team 316 will be there!! 2007 was the first year we were there and it was awesome; the event was run very well, the food was good, the pit layouts are convenient, the team social was perfect, the teams were so gracious and friendly, and we love snow! Add it all up and you were our number one choice for 2008. Can't wait to see everyone again ~ Thanks for hosting it!

Argh.
Us Pirate are sooo bummed that we can't go this year
No hotels!

[BaldGuy]

I know I speak for the Rest of Team 1518 - The Palmyra-Macedon Raiders (2007 FLR Finalist) when I say we are looking forward to coming back and trying to improve on last years performance.

Hopefully we will continue to thrill the crowds.

2007 FLR- Finalist (with 340 and 354)

Although late on the post team 1591 will be there! Can't wait to see everyone.

I'm sure there are more but, nobody gets to see the list.
Where is the next closest week 2 regional?



VCU...

Any correlation?

Looks like most of the teams on Jason's list got in. Looks like 772 and 467 decided to go someplace else.
It's nice to see FLR break the 40 team barrier.
