I have no clue where that is in relation to NASA so i guess we'll talk more later or cya walking around town. Getting together seems like a fun idea, i must say. :D

Re: Who's ready for San Jose?
 

There are only 10 people on your team? Or is that how many students that are going?

Re: Who's ready for San Jose?
 

I also agree on it being a good idea...as long as we have time in our schedule to hang out. :D

Re: Who's ready for San Jose?
 

True, time is of the essence. To answer the previous post, there are 10 students going down. For us, thats pretty big. This was the biggest year so far, i think. Robotics up here isnt the greatest and there is a major lack of resources and such. Also traveling with us are 2 or 3 parents, a teacher, and a school advisor.

oh

Re: Who's ready for San Jose?
 

The Marriot is about 3-4 blocks from the SJSU campus, and NASA Ames Research Center is approx. 20-30 minutes away from SJSU by freeway. There are lots of locals who could act as chauffers, myself included, if people wanted to get together. I'm going to look into hosting some sort of party at 258's high school (about a 10 minute drive on surface streets from SJSU) on either Thursday, Friday, or Saturday night. I'll check the availability of the gym (where we've hosted roller hockey and pizza parties in the past) sometime today or tomorrow.

Re: Who's ready for San Jose?
 

Yeah one of our coaches told us the Marriot was only a few blocks from SJSU. So where walking, I hope the weather's nice.

Re: Who's ready for San Jose?
 

Oh wow. So much excitement about San Jose. Especially from us, Chief Delphi. Six more days and we're out of this crummy weather. Hopefully the weather over there will be better then here. Of course! :D Hope to see you there.

Re: Who's ready for San Jose?
 

Are you sure, a party? Or is more like a team social? Just curious.

Re: Who's ready for San Jose?
 

I know pray that it's sunny and not raniy like it is here. And don't forget to bring your camera(s) guys.

Re: Who's ready for San Jose?
 

If there is a charge how much is it. And do you know how far it is from The Marriot.

Re: Who's ready for San Jose?
 

Nerd party sounds awesome :D Im with delphi on the weather, hope its nice over there! Bill, thanks for giving us a better idea of the area.

Re: Who's ready for San Jose?
 

We're ready! Yes, the weather is going to be nice.

Re: Who's ready for San Jose?
 

There won't be a charge (but then again, we probably won't have gourmet food). Our school is located at
555 Dana Ave.
San Jose, CA 95126

Here are mapquest directions from the Marriot to Lincoln High School.

No Problem, akracefreak. I'll get back to you all tomorrow about the specific date of the "party." If anyone else from out of town has any questions, there are tons of locals on these boards who would love to help you out.
