Unfortunately, I'll be missing the even for the second straight year (and my 2nd time ever). It's my favorite regional, but Philly's the same weekend. Have fun down there in RVA.

2108 will be returning to NASA/VCU (although I think it's now officially Virginia) for our forth year We will also be attending North Carolina, as its in our back yard, and hopefully Champs....

See you in Richmond.

Hi all...

After missing last year 1610 has returned. We originally were gonna go to the NC regional but moved back to Virginia. A quick look at the First regional lists will tell the tail of who's coming and who is'nt.

1676 is ready to bring some Jersey love, along with 75 and 293...

We are really looking forward to the competition, we hope to see you all there!

The best part will be meeting so many new teams.

Does anyone know if this will be webcast? Also about how far away are the pits from the field. In my experience they have only ever behind behind a curtain on the half of a stadium but I have heard of some that are quite far away

Same arena as the other ten years. None of the pits will be far away, the furthest will have to walk the length of a basketball court and a bit to reach queuing, but will then have a very short walk when they leave.

A webcast is not for sure yet, but likely.

Hmm... according to the FIRST site it's not. Virginia's listed as 3/18-3/20, and Philly as 3/25 to 3/27. Either way, I won't be there because it's finals week at drexel, and then I'm on break for 5 days before coming back to Philly to work the regional here. But I'll be watching the webcast and rooting for 1676!

Team 422 is really excited to bring three great teams and robots from New Jersey down to Virginia. Good luck to the #75 RoboRaiders, #293 Spike, and the #1676 Pascack Pioneers. I hope all three teams can make a safe and quick trip down to the Siegel Center in downtown Richmond to display three quality teams, inside the robot and out.

I will be the volunteer photographer again, and I will also be taking pictures of teams and robots this time (since Virginia FIRST liked my photos last year). So if you see that lone tripod up in the stands, you know why!

When I posted it, they were the same week. Scheduling changes since then.

And I certainly hope you don't have a final on Saturday, that would be most lame. You should try and come down then.

I might try and make it down for Saturday at VCU, but it's still undecided.
