Re: Do you celebrate your team number day?
 

I have recognized 8/14 for the past 2 years. I never really thought of celebrating it, though. That's a good idea. We wouldn't be able to do any team-building exercises because we would only be a week or less into the school year, so we wouldn't have new members yet...But we could have some fundraiser or something.

Re: Do you celebrate your team number day?
 

I just wanted to report back and tell everyone what a great experience it was to have a team building night before build season starts.

We tried hard to break down barriers. We placed Leaders with rookies, programmers with artists, etc. We started with a good dose of building season Pizza and then went right into the activities.

Luckily, we have a gym teacher that is an expert in team building activities, but the activities can be easily found on many web sites.

I highly recommend doing this with your team!!

I have posted two pictures in the gallery under Misc.

Best of luck to all teams this season!!

Re: Do you celebrate your team number day?
 

Hmmm. Hour 1168 of the year would fall on 4 PM on the 48th day of the year, which is 17 February - right in the middle of build season (a Thursday in 2005).

Ours would be April 25th. Just after nationals this coming year, I hope we have something to celebrate!!! As the dates move, nationals will eventually fall on the 25th, so we could celebrate there!

Now that you have opened the door.....
I celebrate 47 many times dailey as it is a very special number.

to name a few....
my car plate is CD47
in 1904 people averaged to live 47 years
many, many inventions occured in 1947
the number 47 appears in every episode of Star Trek the next Generation
we won the chairmans award when I was 47
and this is only a few examples......

I have a 1/2 hour presentation dedicated to the number 47.

If you want to know how special the number is just search 47 in yahoo. What you will find will amaze you beyond belief.

The prophecies for 2005 are beginning people...

the 121st day of 2005 is the Friday or Saturday of nationals (forgot which)... but this also shall show a true prophecy that will come true as of April 2005 in Atlanta, GA @ the First Championships m/

Re: Do you celebrate your team number day?
 

Actually, the 121st day is April 30th, the saturday after nationals.

Re: Do you celebrate your team number day?
 

We need a standard, and the easiest way to do this is to have everyone celebrate the day that is their team number, modulo 365! So 1418 would celebrate the 323rd day of the year...

Re: Do you celebrate your team number day?
 

Well, I'm wondering if the 2002 kickoff was on Saturday, January 5th. If that were to be true, counting leap year team 812 celebrated its 812th day after its first kickoff with the Engineering Inspiration award at LA on Saturday, March 27th, 2004. Not counting leap year, our mentor won the Woodie Flowers Award. the day before. We were really celebrating because of our team number and we didn't know it... maybe its some kind of lucky charm, I'm going to have to keep track of that now 812 days from March 27th, 2004.

Re: Do you celebrate your team number day?
 

I forgot to mention that the 47th day of the year, Feb 16th, our school system, to celebrate, gives ALL the students in the district the day off. NO SCHOOL this day.

Yes, I know it is a planned teacher inservice day:)

Re: Do you celebrate your team number day?
 

The 111th day of the year falls on April 21 (unless it is a leap year). That coincides with the first day of the Championship this year. No need for a special celebration.

Re: Do you celebrate your team number day?
 

how would one do 1147

Re: Do you celebrate your team number day?
 

hmmm... we cant really celebrate the 368th day of the year because there is only 365 days... that is quite interesting. i dont suppose that we could celebrate 36/8 or anything like that. but i guess its just our luck. interesting idea! :cool:
