I will be attending this, though it may end up me going by myself and not actually with Virginia Tech.

Maryland will send 2-3 teams.

VCU will bring some number of teams, one at the very least.

State College will bring one team, maybe a second

CMU will bring 1-2 teams.

W&M will be there with two buzzers, two teams, and probably a staffer. Also will have UVA's buzzers to return

Maryland might actually be kicking it up to 4 teams - I'll try to confirm tomorrow night, but it looks promising.

Might you be looking for extra staff for this shindig?

Of course

Is Uva still replacing every parking lot anywhere near campus with a building

Yes, so you your best bet for free parking is to park near the stadium. There are closer places to park, but the probability that there will be open space is slim.

Where should we make our check out to?

I have updated the field listing in the first post. We will definitely be meeting in New Cabell hall.

CMU will be bringing two teams.

Cut VCU to one team please.

What's the start time for this?

Registration is planned for 8:30-9:00, I will send an email tonight with the exact location and other helpful info.

Hey--

UNC would like to bring one team. Any chance you could sign us up?

When do we meet, and in what room?

Anybody coming from Richmond have an extra spot in their car? I'm perfectly capable of driving, but it would be nice to save the gas.
