The dates for the 2009 Midwest Regional have been announced! We hope that you will
join us on February 26 through 28 at the UIC Pavilion and be part of one of the longest
running regionals in the country!
There are teams coming from 6 states and Ontario, including several past Championship winners. If should be a fantastic event!! We look forward to seeing you in Chicago!

Midwest Regional Team Social
For all those who purchased tickets, join us anytime after 5:00PM at the Field Museum on Friday, February 27th. There will be a challenging scavenger hunt (with prizes!). Click here for more details
Pre-Order Lunches for the Midwest Regional
Teams may now pre-order lunch for the Midwest Regional. Click here to download a copy of the order form.
Just as a reminder, you are not allowed to bring food or drink into any of the competition venues. This is a great thing to do because you can prepay for the lunches, know what the kids are eating, and have a couple of people pick them up in a package without having to stand in line either as individuals or with a mass order at the event.
All team lunch orders and method of payment must be faxed/emailed by 12:00pm on Feb 12, 2009 (further detaisl in order form).
