Re: Any Off Season Events in Oregon
Based on this part of the FIRST website, there are two on the same weekend in October in Oregon. http://www.usfirst.org/roboticsprogr.../calendar/list

Yeah but it would be sweet if someone started an off season event that occurred during the summer and uses this years robot

Re: Any Off Season Events in Oregon
Well, you would still use this year's robot in an October event, right?

Yes, the October events we host, Girls' Generation and Rookie Rumble are Aerial Assist and are held October 11th and 12th. We hold them during the school year in order to to get NEW members energized about the season to come. Things are pretty quiet around Oregon competition-wise in the summer.
The rules for BunnyBots, our pre-season FRC-class competition with a different game, will be announced Sept 1st. That competition is Dec 20th. |

And if you want more information you should probably message Dale Yocum, who has conveniently already posted in this thread. :D |

Create one for next summer! Not only are offseason competitions amazing for developing pre-rookies, rookies, veteran members, and new drivers, but they also provide a great opportunity for fund raising and teaching training workshops for teams in the area. Offseason competitions are a great resource for developing the level of competition in your district.

Re: Any Off Season Events in Oregon
Washington FIRST Robotics the non-profit organization tasked with running the PNW FRC district does have two official FRC fields and game specific field elements for Aerial Assist and 1 full set of electronics. They are available to teams in the PNW district to host their own off-season event. If anyone is interested you can PM me and I'll help you sort out the details. We may also consider requests from teams outside of the PNW district. Note because we have a single FMS and electronics it will need to work around the events that have already be scheduled or are already in the planning stages.

How do training work shops come into play with an off season event .

Re: Any Off Season Events in Oregon
FIRSTfare, our region's big conference for FRC teams, is being held at Gladstone High in the Portland Metro area Oct 27th. That gives new and returning members an overview of a wide range of topics. Beyond that each team has their own method for getting people up to speed. That's also what BunnyBots is for.

Re: Any Off Season Events in Oregon
Are the presenters in First Fare generally students or mentors?
