Our mascot is the bulldog and we have a brand new laser so instead of button, we're instead going to do dog tags with the chain and everthing. :cool:

Re: 2006 Team Give-a-ways
 

GLOW STICKS!!! :D I love glow sticks! (or glowy bracelets) I still have a glow bracelet from rookie year...although it has lost its glow by now.

Any team that gives out stuff that glows automatically gets cool points. :cool:

Re: 2006 Team Give-a-ways
 

I wish my team gave out glow things so i could get some cool points :(

Re: 2006 Team Give-a-ways
 

Surprisingly I have found glow sticks to not cost that much if you by them in extreme amounts of bulk. Like upwards of 1000s+ :D

Re: 2006 Team Give-a-ways
 

We're giving away sharpies and wrist bands w/our logo and Rolls-Royce helicopter pens. My favorite give away was the caution tape from team CAUTION in Phoenix. Thanks guys!

Re: 2006 Team Give-a-ways
 

Last year we gave out glow sticks, but unfortunately, they're not in our budget for this year ;___;

We are trying to come up with something cool, but in the mean time, I pride our team on having 7 different button slogans! Collect all 7! And if you missed last year's, you can still collect some of those 12 slogans! ~_^

Re: 2006 Team Give-a-ways
 

Last year we gave out Bosch Key chains and Scout Pro (a scouting program) at VCU and Atlanta. This year we are giving out wrist bands that says CA Robotics Team 612. Our next stop is Atlanta, so if you want one, do stop by our pit area.
Although I've some really cool buttons from last year. Also this year, a team at VCU was taking pictures of the robots and were giving out the buttons with the picture on it. It was kinda cool

Re: 2006 Team Give-a-ways
 

This is what 45 is giving away this year:

2006 edition Safety Glasses
"Boom Baby!" buttons
"Confirm Safe Operation" robot plugs
"Charged" battery plugs
2005 edition Bandanas

Re: 2006 Team Give-a-ways
 

That's a lot of glowiness! :D *squee*

Re: 2006 Team Give-a-ways
 

Out Team's FIRST logo keychains are gone the second teams hear we have them. They are always enjoyed.

But...THE greatest giveaway has to be team 141 The Wo-Bot Coloring Book complete with Crayons. Have any of you see it? It's awsome!

Wo-Bot goes to plant dune grass.
