2014 Tech Valley Regional
 
There wasn't an "official" thread before, so here it is. It's hard to believe that the first ever Tech Valley regional is under a week away! I know that 2791 is excited to have an official "home" event and we're ready for some stiff competition. Also, the last I heard the event was short on volunteers, so if you're in the area please consider helping a new regional become a success. The team list:

Code:

20        The Rocketeers                2053        TigerTronics
53        Area 53                        2228        CougarTech
116        Epsilon Delta                2791        Shaker Robotics
145        T-Rx                        2911        CoolBots
174        Arctic Warriors                3003        TAN(X)
229        Division By Zero        3015        Ranger Robotics
250        Dynamos                        3044        Team 0xBE4

I'm looking forward to the new event and venue and seeing the teams that we no longer get to play with in NE.
I'll be one of the Game Announcers for the weekend, so if you have anything you'd like us to know about your team (or if we pronounce anything wrong) feel free to come find me.

Good Luck to all the teams!

Be careful getting there everyone. Looks like the weather is going to take a turn for the worst.

Team 379 is looking forward to attending the Tech Valley Regional, but we also heard the weather was going to get bad for the trip there. The 7-8 hour bus ride from Ohio should be fun!!

T-Rx, Team 145 is chomping at the bit, pun intended.

Can't wait to get to Troy and see what our 'bot can do, see some old friends and make some new ones!

Safe travels, late is better than not at all!

Team 3193, Falco Tech, will also be heading up from Ohio. It's gonna be great...but that trek East on I-90 is not looking pretty. C'mon man!!

Team 3990 Tech for Kids, from Montréal (Québec, Canada), will be heading to Troy on Thursday morning, starting at 3 am. It's a 4 hours drive from Montréal, not counting the time spent at the border, unpacking and packing everything.

Unpacking a robotics team truck at night and during the snowstorm, that will be interesting. :eek:

This should be an awesome regional. I'm really excited to see how well all of the capital region teams will perform, since many of them have a practice bot for the first time!
Good luck, and we'll see you at the competition! :D

Angry Eric is awesome!

On a side note, how are teams dealing with the winter storm coming in on Wednesday? We are still determining if we can leave early to beat it or head out early Thursday.

I'll be there helping to make the inaugural Tech Valley Regional awesome! After a great week 2 event at the New England Groton event, I'm looking forward to how week 3's strategies will play out. We've got a great set of teams coming in, including a few that NY doesn't typically see coming in (thanks for travelling!)

See you all on Friday, drive safe!

Larry,

It looks like our weather here is changing by the hour. The latest has a snow/rain mix for morning, rain during the day and back to snow in the evening.

Everyone have a safe trip into town.
