Also, is the minimum one grade school student backpack full of school supplies still part of the entry fee?

Re: 2012 I.R.I. - Updated Event Information
 

Is there a Paypal option for that?

Re: 2012 I.R.I. - Updated Event Information
 

yes, we still encourage teams to bring a backpack for an elementary school student. we will post the suggested materials.

teams could also add $30 to the entry fee and we can use it to purchase items. but it is pretty cool to see the variety that teams bring!

Re: 2012 I.R.I. - Updated Event Information
 

Figurative entry fee. Bringing at least one backpack as part of your overall "payment" to IRI has been an event tradition for many years. I did not see that requirement listed in Chris' initial post and wondered if it was still going to be a requirement for 2012.

Does anybody know whether the match schedule when it is ready on Friday will be available in electronic form? Also I noticed that last year the team standings were available Saturday morning and it looks like it is in the same format as from FMS. Can someone confirm that HP BP TP CP will be included in that report? It will be nice to include the Match Results also. My scouting system relies heavily on these data. I hate to have to type in the match schedule.

There is a fantastic Drury Inn and Suites just off the freeway exit closest to the school. About a mile from the school as I remember. Breakfast included...and afternoon/evening snacks. Just sad our team didn't have the money to join the rest of you guys. :(

Are the IRI matches going to be recorded and put on youtube or some other video site?

does anyone know the name of the Mario dubstep song they played? Maybe a playist?
