You can just show up for the Team Social but I think you need to have mentor with you.

Re: 2006 Philadelphia Regional
 

Well, since it looks like the weather might actually cooperate for this weekend (with avg temperatures in the mid to upper 60's), anyone up for a challenging game of Ultimate Frisbee on Friday or Saturday?? :D

Re: 2006 Philadelphia Regional
 

I think you pretty much just need to show up with your team, unless you look like a mentor. We basically just walked in at our convenience last year.

And yes the Sheraton has free internet.

Re: 2006 Philadelphia Regional
 

From an offical email
so it looks like we just go over to the social

Re: 2006 Philadelphia Regional
 

Shhh here's a secret...
ILL BE THERE SATURDAY!
I haven't worked out the details yet (either driving, going with Dad, or taking the train), but I'll be there.
And maybe Friday too.... ~_^

Re: 2006 Philadelphia Regional
 

Oops some Senior Mentor sent out that official email and he screwed up a little.... The location was wrong.

So he got to send this one out...

"Teams,
My apologies for giving the wrong location on the team social...
TEAM SOCIAL on FIRDAY will be held at Bossone: 1st floor lobby
on Market Street's South Side between 30th and 32nd Streets
Still a short walk from the DAC competition venue."

So you are right....all teams ATTENDING the regional are invited to the social with their team mentors. The walk to this location is right down Market Street two blocks.


(note to self: delete 2006 team social email file before 2007 rolls around and you wind up looking like an email idiot to 46 teams again.)

Attention Mentors:

Re: 2006 Philadelphia Regional
 

Team 1719, The Umbrella Corporation, is excited to be attending the Philadelphia Regional for the first time. 2006 is our rookie year and this will be our second regional. We won the Rookie All Star Award at the Chesapeake Regional and had a great time. Our team is based at The Park School of Baltimore and includes students from the Science and Math Academy at Aberdeen High School and 1 student each from 2 more schools. We are the only team representing Maryland. Please look for our umbrellas and feel free to give us hugs and tips.

Re: 2006 Philadelphia Regional
 

Something like 11 hours.... maybe less... this will be a good one, gotta love Philly (though then again I lived there so it would be wrong not to.)

Re: 2006 Philadelphia Regional
 

Just got home from the venue. 46 crates are all there with sleeping robots inside. Field was all but ready when I left. Lights, viedo, sound all ready to rock.

Show Ready Events, Drexel University, our volunteer coordinators Maureen Weiss and Anne Larkin, and dozens of volunteers have all done a phenomenol job getting us ready to go.

Get some rest, you'll need it.

Re: 2006 Philadelphia Regional
 

Kressly:
You're probably the one that needs rest!

Thanks for all of your hard work.
