New Regional Request
Well, last year I made a plea to this board to get some teams from South Dakota into FIRST...and low and behold this year, there were tons of them! Sooooo this year I am now calling out to you all once again, to make an effort to convince FIRST to get a regional in South Dakota by 2004!!!!!!
BTW, Thank you to everyone in the NE area for your support in trying to convince the people at FIRST to let me announce a regional next year. I really love announcing competitions and would love more than anything to announce a regional, especially the Manchvegas regional. Whether I get to do it or not we'll see, but my thanks to all of you reguardless....oh and speaking of announcing, I will be doing River Rage 6, the oldest offseason competition in FIRST. SIGN UP FOR THIS COMPETITION!!!! The guys from Central, West, and Trinity do a wonderful job at putting on a really high class competition every year...this year promises to be as good as ever! Peace All, Andy Grady |

Yes, Nats a NYC...
Yes, I like that idea, Nats at NYC.
The best spot I can think of is the Meadowlands Sport complex in New Jersey. Lots of room, lots of parking, and a short ride into New York City. Three major airports in the area, Amtrak, conrail, buses, etc. You have my vote. ![]() |

i would love to have the nationals in NYC. just imagine a few thousand of us running around the city in bright green and orange t-shirts covered in pins. it would also be more cost effective for all of us north eastern teams. the city is just a short ride on the L.I.R.R. from here.

How about Richmond Virginia! WOW! It would be so close to me and...
Wait, we already have one I say that one in the Mid-west is the best bet, can get lots of people from both sides of the coast. |

For some reason, the teams in my area want one here in Huntsville, but I there are only 5 teams around and I don't think there's too much to do here and not many people would sign up, all we have is the space & rocket center (which is not THAT great) and we also have Marshall SpaceFlight Center, but would anyone out there be interested in coming to Huntsville, AL? If not I can tell the people in our area to stop trying, Cause I don't think its a good idea.

since there are so many NE area teams there should be a southern and northern NE regional and maybe get rid of one or two because the SBPLI Long Island regional and the NYC regional are so close together and maybe there are others

I think Huntsville, AL could have a Regional. The more interest we have in that area the more teams can be formed. NASA/Marshall is there and many more teams could begin...
Anthony, I do know that there is not a huge amount of things to do, but there is the chance to go to more than one Regional also...think of the expense for the new teams in our area. Anyway, possible places: Huntsville, AL Atlanta, Ga Either of those would be good. |

Hawaii. They definitely have a hard time getting to any regional, the closest being San Jose. Airfare for one person in coach is something like $500-600 which is not cheap, especially when flying is the only way to get to a competition. Plus Hawaii would be a great place to go. But then it makes it hard for all other teams to get there.

Truthfully, there are so many on the east coast, they should add more mid-land Regionals. I wonder if more England teams will evolve this year, and possibly they will have a Regional?
