High Stakes Field Equipment on Backorder

Due to funding and grant-related issues, my school wasn’t able to order the High Stakes field equipment until mid-September. I just learned that the field equipment kit (donuts/targets/ladder/etc) is on back order until mid or late October which puts us in a bind for our November competition.
In the mean time, we have the one donut from the Welcome Kit and I’m reaching out to my regional RobotEvents coordinator to see if we can get a target and a few more donuts for testing purposes.
Does anyone know when VEX ran out of the field equipment kits?
I’m trying to plan ahead for next year.

I believe the kits stopped shipping around August or early September.

As for when to order them, its best to pre-order them around March or April to guarantee your organization to have them when school starts.
Here was when last year’s fields started collecting pre-orders:
