Don’t forget your Safety Glasses! Everyone is required to wear Safety Glasses at all times in the Pit area. When you are packing up to go to CMP, please remember to pack Safety Glasses for every Student and Mentor who will be in the Pit area.

Has anyone been able to find a pit map as of yet?

Re: **FIRST EMAIL**/CMP Division Lists Available/Mobile-Friendly Championship Website
 

If you download that phone app it has it.

Re: **FIRST EMAIL**/CMP Division Lists Available/Mobile-Friendly Championship Website
 

I didn't think it was available yet?

Re: **FIRST EMAIL**/CMP Division Lists Available/Mobile-Friendly Championship Website
 

Downloaded App and it works fine. The search seams to only be by team name.

Re: **FIRST EMAIL**/CMP Division Lists Available/Mobile-Friendly Championship Website
 

Key volunteers have access to the pit map right now. I can share for now that it looks like pits are 10x10 and all 4 divisions are in halls 4 and 5, with Arch closest to dome, followed by Cur, Gal and then Newton farthest away. Mind you this isn't "official".

Re: **FIRST EMAIL**/CMP Division Lists Available/Mobile-Friendly Championship Website
 

I was able to find it on the App Store by searching for aisle411. "FIRST Robotics" (sans quotes) is the name of the app.

Re: **FIRST EMAIL**/CMP Division Lists Available/Mobile-Friendly Championship Website
 

Last year the entrance point to the team walkway to the dome extended out to the boundry between halls 4 and 5, so that one division pit area was not drastically closer to the fields than another.

Re: **FIRST EMAIL**/CMP Division Lists Available/Mobile-Friendly Championship Website
 

Found it! Thanks.

Re: **FIRST EMAIL**/CMP Division Lists Available/Mobile-Friendly Championship Website
 

I emailed the developer in St. Louis and they are adding team numbers today or tomorrow.

Re: **FIRST EMAIL**/CMP Division Lists Available/Mobile-Friendly Championship Website
 

On the FIRST Robotics app it says "Load-in B" is at the Plaza entrance at the corner of 7th and Convention Plaza road. We're just bringing our stuff on Metrolink so is this where we'd enter Wednesday night since we don't have a truck?

Re: **FIRST EMAIL**/CMP Division Lists Available/Mobile-Friendly Championship Website
 

I still can't tell where the pit map will be posted once the numbers are added. Can someone link me?

Re: **FIRST EMAIL**/CMP Division Lists Available/Mobile-Friendly Championship Website
 

You would think the pit map would be posted at http://www.usfirst.org/roboticsprogr...pionship-event but you never know. Most of this discussion was about the FIRST Robotics app for iPhone and Android that already has it. Those maps have team numbers now, you just can't search for them, just by team name, for the time being.

Re: **FIRST EMAIL**/CMP Division Lists Available/Mobile-Friendly Championship Website
 

I downloaded the app and emailed myself the pit map file that was in the app. Here it is:

Thank you. I'm not smart enough to have a smart phone.

FRC quiet area? Interesting. "Make it Loud!" and all that... ;)
