What a difference a few days makes.
Chesapeake has 3 slots left. A really nice mix of old friends from out of state, local Maryland teams and new friends, some traveling quite a distance.
Look for updated information on the website here in the coming weeks re: the 2011 event.

Also has link to VIMS from mdfirst.org website to sign up to volunteer.
We are looking at being back at our favorite event! We are looking forward to seeing many of our old friends! We are also excited about bringing a new rookie team with us! FRC 3650, the Electric Eagles from North Point High School, in Waldorf, MD is a new MD team!
Go RoboBees! Go Electric Eagles! 
Best regards,

Team549 the DevilDawgs are looking forward to attending the Chesapeake Regional. Any recomondations on what to do at night?
The Baltimore Convention Center is within walking distance to many popular attractions around the Inner Harbor-some which have evening hours. Last year I talked to teams who visited the National Aquarium, the Maryland Science Museum, and a Baltimore Blast soccer game during their stay in Baltimore.
The event also hosted a low key social on Friday night, but the planning committee has not released any info yet re: 2011
Look for more info on the mdfirst.org site in the next couple of months.

340 is really looking forward to attending the Chesapeake Regional this year. It looks like a very competitive group of teams. Many team we haven’t played with in years. We have never been to Baltimore so all of the information about the event and local activities is great.
Any good suggestions on hotels would be great also. We will be bussing down so we really don’t need to stay within walking distance. I have checked the regional webite, there is some nice information there.
The planning committee will be updating the hotel info for 2011 on the mdfirst.org site. Look for this in the next couple of weeks.
If you don’t need to worry about walking to the event from the hotel, you might find some bargains closer to BWI airport including some suite type hotels. The drive into the city from that direction can be a little congested during rush hour, but it is only about 10 miles.
1124 is one of the teams going to Chesapeake for our first time this year, and it looks like we have some friends from CT who will be joining us.
2836 is looking forward to a great time in Baltimore! We’re already starting to plan out transportation and hotel accommodations, and will be watching for updates on mdfirst.org.
237 is thrilled to be going back to Chesapeake. I am a little sad not to be going back to Annapolis (great old school venue), but I understand the harbor area has lots to offer.
Connecticut will be well represented. It will be a blast.
