Weather
Tropical Storm Bill has come in to Houston but our venue and the surrounding area was not hit very hard. The event will go on. If your team is no longer coming please let me know ASAP.

There are expectations of rain on Friday and Saturday so plan accordingly. Like last year the robots will travel briefly outside during the event but under a covered walkway. I don't imagine the rain being an issue during the event but it may be smart to have a tarp or something for loading, etc.

Workshops
We are pleased to announce that we will have 5 workshops at TRI this year. There will be signup sheets at Administration for each of these workshops. The workshops will be in our STEM building, located near the gyms.

9:30 AM - Noon
FIRST Progression Workshops
We will have three separate workshops covering FLL, FTC, & FRC. They will be given by the event organizers in the Houston area. See the attached PDF for full descriptions and schedules.

10:30 AM - 11:30 AM
From strategic requirements to robot design. - Aren Hill FRC#1296
"Discussion and examples of how to handle the transition from what strategy dictates to what your team can make. I will be sharing my experiences and what has worked for me in the past for this step, in addition to discussion regarding "how far to reach" mentalities based on team resources."

1:00 PM - 2 PM
Building a Sustainable Team: - Andrew Lynch FRC#2587
"Building a successful team is difficult but making a sustainable team is easy. The presentation will overview recruitment to fundraising and everything in between that creates a sustainable team. "

Webcast
The event will be streamed live and archived for later watching.
You will be able to find a full field stream here.

Thanks for putting on a great event! The Full Metal Jackets enjoyed every minute, Friday at NASA (better known as the Robonaut's practice facility) and the Saturday competition. It was great to spend time with our Texas friends.

The upgrades to Cryptonite's machine were impressive - looks like they've been working on it non-stop. Every time we stepped it up they always had another gear. Look out IRI!

Amazing event for a 2nd year offseason! Congrats to all the teams and the volunteers.

Some teams were definitely preparing for IRI , while others were starting the season with new drivers and members. The impact on the students is really what makes these events remarkable.

Big congrats to Spectrum 3847 and Allen Gregory on a fantastic event.

Thank you to everyone that helped make the 2nd edition of TRI a great event. We have some many awesome volunteers who make this event possible, and a great group of Texas teams that make events a fun experience.

If anyone is wondering you can relive all the action in a number of ways.

Stats, match videos, and rankings are all live on The Blue Alliance
Thanks to their new off-season Event Wizard. Eugene and crew did an awesome job putting that together and adding the ablity to instantly upload match video links was great.
