Re: 2016 Arizona North Regional
 

I have been looking for load in and event information for this regional. Has it been posted or emailed yet? Looking forward to competing with everyone this week.

Re: 2016 Arizona North Regional
 

Load in begins at 4:00pm Wed. There is no early pit setup.

Will there be a webcast for this event?

Re: 2016 Arizona North Regional
 

Team 2486 is super duper excited to compete in our hometown with a lot of the wonderful teams! This will be the best regional ever!

Re: 2016 Arizona North Regional
 

Team 1492, Team Caution has a team leaving in 4 hours! The rest are driving up early tomorrow morning! :D

Re: 2016 Arizona North Regional
 

50 NUTRONs rolled out this morning at 3AM to catch a 6AM flight out of Boston through Houston to Vegas- at which point the team will drive to Flagstaff.

The robot was checked on the plane along with our tools/parts/supplies/posters. We won't catch load-in tonight but we'll see everyone in the morning!

From what I've heard, NAU will be taking care of it. It's been a crazy season but I think 842 will be fully ready to go this weekend. Will definitely be the strongest Arizona regional in its history. Anything can happen in eliminations.

The facility at NAU is AMAZING! This is the regional to be at.

For example... PADDED PIT FLOORS! Yep, that's right, don't have to stand on hard cement all weekend! The seating are is HUGE.

I think this will be the event to go to every years.

Big thanks for the support from Northern Arizona University!

For all those competing what bumper fabric are you using?

Re: 2016 Arizona North Regional
 

1339 and 1410 have arrived! See y'all soon.

Re: 2016 Arizona North Regional
 

This is going to be so nice on the volunteers' feet here. The whole arena is padded since it can be used for track and field meets.

Looking forward to seeing all the great robots being unbagged today!

Re: 2016 Arizona North Regional
 

Couple more things I like about this location

Lots of seats! On all sides of the field
A food truck inside the arena
The crew running the event is very laid back and easy going. It makes it such a pleasure to get things done. The inspectors are friendly and helpful, as is the field staff and the volunteers.
Teams are very friendly. We've lent stuff to teams, they've lent stuff to us. GP at it's best.

Let the games begin tomorrow!

Seconding the great venue. The field looks amazing for this game. Here's hoping our robot can handle the level of play it seems we will see tomorrow!
