So who hosted our New Zealand guests & did you or they know about the new 2009 Regional before it was announced during the closing ceremonies???

Sneaky? Hint? The first sentence of the email very clearly says, "We have a very active program underway to hold an FRC regional competition in Auckland, New Zealand in March 2009." Not much hidden meaning there.

1025 hosted a student and adult. Shawn was kind of quiet and I didn't get to speak with him. Tim, the adult, wanted some tips on strategy in playing the game and alliance selection, and we watched the action on Curie Saturday morning. He could have been a strategist for any team out there - watch out next year!
