How about we just bring our own Garmin engineer? He helps a lot in keeping our robot from getting lost..lol..no GPS but he helps a lot in our programming.

For those of you just taking digital cameras, take enough memory cards... If you are taking a digital camera and a laptop, take a means to transfer the pictures (unless you're like me and your laptop has a build in card reader). And more than one set of batteries, even with a charger.

Who just happened to be the one who brough his GPS system with him so we knew how long before we got there after our 2.5 hour delay from our bus!!!

I brought the GPS Jess, and look... I didn't even break anything this time! <knock on wood> I did in fact actually save a battery from falling off our robot and I do have a witness or two!!!!
So... :p lol j/k

And the only reason we get lost going to mini comps is because of those EVIL roundabouts in MA.. Those should be illegal!
