That's where fundraising comes in. Don't be so quick to give up yet.

Man, ChiefDelphi Forums always pump me up so much for the competitions! The one thing that's good about the competitions is the team social because it gives you the opportunity to talk to others and meet new people without having the stress of competing.

i always like nationals too because thats the biggest even of the kind and gives you the most time to chat with people from CD.

Personally, I don't have many FIRST friends.

I think I have some type of social anxiety, where I just freeze in unfamiliar public situations and have trouble communicating. One example was last year's webhug, where I got there all excited about meeting people, but I got there and just froze. I didn't really talk to anyone, except for Erin Rapacki (I'm sorry if this is misspelled) on the elevator back to the pits. I know people won't hurt me or anything (after all, this is FIRST), but I just have trouble talking to new people.

Anyways, I'll be at SoCal or championships if anyone wants to say Hi (I may or may not have trouble saying Hi back, it's usually easier if someone else starts the conversation).

Anyway, thanks for listening/reading/possibly skimming.

Nationals are awesome too because all the FIRST "Big Wigs" are there (Woodie, Dean, Dave) and all of the "Famous Teams" are there too! The Team Social last year at nats was a lot of fun and I got to meet some cool people. I hope we qualify for nationals this year, because if we don't I'm sure we'll be missing one hell of a FIRST party!!

Well, no one would hurt you, expect Big Mike. I still hurt Mike, not on the outside, but the inside. ;)

Anyway, if you want, come on over to Sparky, I'll talk to you. :)

There may be an exibition in the off season but that remains to be seen (there are an awful lot of teams in Rochester all of the sudden so a high school gym is no longer suitable) and as I had said before there are plenty of off season competitions to go to. Just bring it up to your team and see what they think.

KOKO! we were just thinking of this. i know that our school's gym/field house is big enough to hold a big mini comp. we can have the field in the GYM and have the pits in the fields house due to no bleachers in the field house. does it not sound like a great idea? if possible it will be a great thing to end a great 3 year reign for the seniors on my team and my self.

This is something i have already been thinking about. It would be hard to organize, but i have someone from another team who says they would help me.. i just have to make sure my team doesnt think I am crazy. I dont know of any off season comps that are schedualed yet.. if you find some nearby.. let me know! thanks. :D

We'd better get the Rochester FIRST people on board first. They may have other plans so it's best to make sure.

Canadians are truly amazing. Example, I think I recognize omutton from GLR 2004. And that's how you find people from regionals. They pop up randomly.

Well I know they did one in Canada's Wonderland last year (and with the Fast Ferry back up and running pretty easy to get to) but I think Karthik would know if they're still doing it.
