Arkansas Regional - Would You Come?

[Meredith Novak]

After being alone in Arkansas for 16 years, we finally have a little company. We have been working very hard to get Arkansas "on the map" with FIRST and the years of struggle seem to have at last gotten some movement. Thanks to the jcpenney grants, we have 2 rookies and are expecting several more next season.

My question to this community: Would any of your teams consider coming to a regional event in Northwest Arkansas, likely at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville? I realize it would largely depend on the schedule, but nothwithstanding that, might you?

Although we are working to get several rookie teams to compete, we are not interested in hosting a "rookie regional." I would like to feel confident that we can attract enough veteran teams to at least outnumber the rookies by 2 to 1 before I would be willing to go forward with the event.

Let me know if you have any questions. No commitments, just an interest inventory.

Thank you, Meredith
