Team 2073 Year-End Awakeathon
 

Hello everybody! FIRST Team 2073 is planning on hosting an all night (7pm-7am) party on May 18-19th. This is not finalized. We will finalize this when we have received interest from at least 5 teams. Our team is located in Elk Grove, CA. While we would like to invite those teams in the greater Sacramento area, we welcome all teams who are willing to come. This is free, team relationship building, fun event. I would like to get some feedback and promote interest in this, which is why I posted it here. Thanks you guys, and I look forward to seeing you there!

Teams who will receive invitations soon:
-Wolfpack
-Bot kickers
-Kennedy Robotics 3250
-Fembots 692
-Hiram Johnson Robotics
-Citrus Circuits
-2085
-Bird Brains
-Madtown
-Warriorborgs
-Cheesy Poofs
-Wildhats
-Space Cookies


If your team is not listed above, please reply to this post, we'll be happy to send you an invitation! I will post the itinerary within the next couple days.

*I apologize if this is considered spam, I'm just trying to throw a party!

Re: Team 2073 Year-End Awakeathon
 

Wow! I've never been to an awakeathon before! Sounds fun! Plus, it's FIRST people! Great idea throwing one! However, while it is fun, I don't think many people from teams who don't live near Elk Grove or the Greater Sacramento Area will be able to come, mainly due to distance.

On your note, though, I'd love to have some more FIRST in CA events and parties! That would be awesome! I hear about them in the east/midwest, so why can't we have some fun in the sun in CA?! :D

Re: Team 2073 Year-End Awakeathon
 

You can put down 295 - Renevatio (In Roseville/Granite Bay Area Pretty Close). But I don't know how much attendance we'll have as this is the week before our finals :(

Re: Team 2073 Year-End Awakeathon
 

Ok, so we're DEFINITELTY changing the date to either the first week of May or the week after the 18th/19th. So if 295 is still interested, we'll be sure to send you guys an invite!

Re: Team 2073 Year-End Awakeathon
 

Too funny... I just had a student ask me today if we can have a lock-in this May... So better yet, let's crash visit another teams party! So team 701 is definitely interested! Do you have the space? Gym? Maybe each team can bring a game/activity? Keep us posted!

Re: Team 2073 Year-End Awakeathon
 

We will have access to our main gym, secondary gym, and cafeteria. It is highly recommended that each attendee bring some form of entertainment. Wether it be video games or board games or whatever you want!

Re: Team 2073 Year-End Awakeathon
 

What alternate dates work for everybody. We can make it any Friday-Saturday in May. I know a couple teams had a problem with 18-19 and one team had a problem with 25-26 and the first weekend of May was also requested.

Re: Team 2073 Year-End Awakeathon
 

With Proms, Graduations, Finals, Fairs, Demos, there probably won't be one weekend that will work for everyone. I know for us 18-19 would be the best for us, but I say just pick a date and go for it.

Re: Team 2073 Year-End Awakeathon
 

THE DATE IS SET!!! Our awakeathon will take place on May 11-12 from 7pm-7am at Pleasant Grove High School in Elk Grove, CA. If you're team is planning on attending, please send an RSVP e-mail to harsharan.d123@gmail.com ASAP. I hope to see everybody there!

Re: Team 2073 Year-End Awakeathon
 

Is there a confirmed list of the teams who are going?

Re: Team 2073 Year-End Awakeathon
 

We sent out informal invitations. So far, teams that have shown interest are:

-692
-3859
-701
-295

We have no confirmations yet as to who is going for sure. We sent out an invitation to 3250, we have received no response as to interest.

Re: Team 2073 Year-End Awakeathon
 

I've told the team about the event and some of us have shown particular interest in attending.

I can't make any promises as to how many people from 3250 are going but you can confirm that at least one person will make it. ;)

Re: Team 2073 Year-End Awakeathon
 

Will there be robots?

Re: Team 2073 Year-End Awakeathon
 

We have a couple of old junk tankbots that drive, but that's all they do, so we actually might do something with them, but we will not be displaying our bot from this year. Other teams are welcome to bring their robots for display and we recommend they do so if they have the capability to do so.

Re: Team 2073 Year-End Awakeathon
 

We'll 1-up Chief Delphi's Robot Showcase with a Robot Showcase of our own!

Re: Team 2073 Year-End Awakeathon
 

I hope that Fembots have RSVPed already, Cause I really want to go. The only problem for alot of us is that its the same day as Frosh/Soph date dance and Junior Prom. Ima soph, and I wanna come though! :cool: :D

Re: Team 2073 Year-End Awakeathon
 

I'm sorry to say 256 will not be able to awakeathon with all of our friends. :(

Hope you all have fun! Maybe next year we can make it!

Re: Team 2073 Year-End Awakeathon
 

I received e-mails from two other Fembots saying the same thing! I'll put 692 down as RSVPed, but I don't have an estimated headcount, so buy your food early before it sells out :D And, we'll have a dance too (*hint hint*) And plus, you can always have members come late/leave early as long as you check-in with us.

Re: Team 2073 Year-End Awakeathon
 

If you didn't make it tonight, here is some of what you are missing.

Dodgeball





Human Bowling.




X-Box and Firefly at the same time.

Of course there is food, music, dancing and BASKETBALL!!

Re: Team 2073 Year-End Awakeathon
 

This was so much fun! Thank you to the teams who made an appearance. Team 2073 will definitely be hosting this again next year.

Re: Team 2073 Year-End Awakeathon
 

The awakeathon was definitely loads of fun :]

Here's a video I put together of human bowling featuring my 3250 team members: 3250 Human Bowling!!!
