If any one is not impressed by the team list(it looks good but not like last year) then wait until every one registers for second regionals, alot of teams I have heard from have said that they plan to go.

So where are people staying? Team 1403 is staying at the Hyatt in Cambridge.

We are planning to host a team dinner night out of the Hyatt and we are inviting all teams to come join us. More details about that will be coming soon.

I believe 1511 will be attending again!!

246 can't wait!

The high school I go to that is associated with 246, Boston University Academy, is literally one block from the Boston Regional, so I know the area VERY well. If anyone has any questions, feel free to ask, or check out our website (burobotics.org) for more info (like mentor contact info).

Also, the official Boston Regional website is www.bostonfirst.org, and it also has a lot of useful information

I might. We can only have three people in at a time and I've told two people they can stay.

Team 97 is looking forward to our journey across the river. Boston last year was amazing and I think it will be even better this year.

I am attending the Boston Regional for my second time, as a volunteer!

It's really a great venue and great competition, hope to see you there!

With the help of Motorola and NASA, the Boston FIRST Regional is implementing a ‘video database’
system. This will allow teams to cue up video of any previous match as requested, on demand! More
information will be provided at the event. ** We highly recommend all teams bring at least one laptop
computer, along with an Ethernet cable, in order to utilize this system **

Oh man. That is the coolest thing ever. They are recording all of the matches as they happen and putting them on an internet server for teams to watch. This is going to make scouting and strategy meetings on Friday night very interesting.

The Boston Regional rocks! They seem like they will always have something new in store for the teams each year. This will be a HUUUGE help when doing strategy and alliance selections.
