I've passed word of this on to 1257. In the absence of Monty Madness, this may be a possibility.

I'm super sad I have a family commitment that day, otherwise I'd be there in a heartbeat :(

Maybe I'll pop in and help set up the night before...

Hey quick question. I notice there are still 28 spots available. Being my team signed up I realize it's only you guys and us so far. Are you worried about not having enough people? People are probably not signing up now because its pretty early but, the event may not hit 30. What is the minimum amount of teams that you could host.

We want at least 24 to have a full tournament but we can break even with 20 so I guess that's the minimum. Well do a modified playoff.
Then again we have some "pre-rookie" teams who want to attend and some extra Robots for them to use so well definitely mix them into it.
Thanks for registering guys!

We'll take all the help we can!

Is there an update on how many teams registered?

We have 10 teams in total.

In a side note, if any team is interested in attending but is hesitant about signing up because they don't know if it'll actually happen (as several people have indicated in emails to us) please know that this will definitely happen so please don't hesitate to sign up!

Thanks for your interest in our event!

Hey there folks.

Here is an update for the upcoming HVR off season event.

We still only have four teams (and one prerookie team, 0001) that are fully registered for the event:

335
2869
4361
5123
0001

We need at least 20 teams for this event! If your team is in the NYC metro area we strongly ask that you consider our event! We have a great day planned and are now hosting a dinner for all teams the night before (Friday, June 3) for all teams for no extra cost. The deadline for tea registration is May 20.

Thanks and see you at the Hudson Valley Rally!

Hi, my team 4571 really wants to come, but we are concerned about the date. It is the same date as the June SAT. Is there any possibility that the date can be changed?

Yeah we are aware if the conflicting dates. Many of our team members will be going to take their SATs in the morning and will be returning later in the day.

I picked June 4 because it was before the end of school (at least in New York) as I know gaining access to robots and equipment becomes harder in the summer. The previous week is memorial weekend (so that's out of the question) and the following week the facility in which we booked the event is being used.

We thought of three solutions:

Pushing the event later to start at 1:00 and go until late that night or early Sunday

Having the event start later on Saturday and ending at 6:00ish and doing playoffs in Sunday.

Moving the entire event to Sunday.

I know with Sunday though many people may have religious commitments as well, so I am hesitant.

If you are not able to attend because if the SAT I invite you to weigh on the decision making
