It's not a rumor. It's between Indy and Atlanta.
As far as which one is picked, it should be decided soon. It will be held in Atlanta for 2006, and the few years after, will either be Atlanta again, or Indy. It seems they are trending to make contracts last a few years in one location, as it takes an awful lot to organize the event somewhere.

As for people, I would suggest getting to know as many people as you can, and as you frequent the forums you'll find yourself wanting to meet many....

Welcome to FIRST! It's in your blood now...

My apology. I misunderstood.

For once, I agree with you... there are a lot of mentors out there who doesn't post here as much or can't be seen around the forums often.

... to make it easy for you Chase, meet everyone possible in FIRST, thats the way to go. Back in my sophomore year, I started getting into the community of FIRST. I know more than 300 people (Students and Mentors) now (thats the least). Some of them became really good friends of mine. Make friends in FIRST, I promise you won't regret it.
