So fast,
So fast,
This season passed.
The good memories keep piling up =]

Can't wait till January =]
I don't think we'll go to any off season events =[

Re: Season over all ready!!
 

Since when did this happen?? Lol. I never knew that robotics season ended... because if it did, someone never informed me :p I'm 102% robotics all the time :cool:

But seriously, I am sad it's over... like the regionals and all that fun. But off seasons are ALWAYS amazing. It's that time to make things bigger and better and go have fun with friends =] Robotics NEVER ends... its a MOE (aka 365 haha) day job =] Well, at least for me haha :D

As long as River Rage and Rah Cha Cha aren't the same weekend this year... ;)

Re: Season over all ready!!
 

Wait I thought it ended late December, the hint is sort of the start of the new season right?

And I already have my off season project: http://Rhex.org

It's a couple of blocks away, Casey.
Quite nice too (and I've only seen the outside of it. I can't wait to see the inside).

If you're already bored and don't want the FIRST season to end, check out the listing of off-season events, workshops and summer camps on the NEMO website at www.firstnemo.org/calendar.htm - you can always volunteer at an event which is a great way to meet new people and learn about the flip side of FIRST!

My view on things:

The 2006-2007 Season is over
The 2007-2008 Season has started

and now I am a mentor. :)

Re: Season over all ready!!
 

Off season events... hmm...
Because we're run off the boyscouts we have tons boyscout related things to do off season (and on season). We often go to boyscout and cubscout meets to get the word of First out and show off our robots. And thanks to the boyscouts, we are able to take huge camping trips to places like the San Juan Islands in Washington.

One of our sponsors (HP) gives out about 6k to each first team in Oregon. In return, most of the Oregon first teams go and have a mini-competition each year for them. Aside from that, we make a float for our town's parade and we show off our robot in tons of other events.


It's sad that we miss so many other mini-competitions such as Rah Cha Cha Ruckus but maybe I could get my team to go to one of those instead of (or in addition to) going on a big trip... What are some oppinions on which mini-competition would be the funnest? And which ones would be the easiest for an Oregon team to get to?

Re: Season over all ready!!
 

We need to decompress for a short while (till the robot gets back), then we'll be back at work fixing and maybe redesigning a few components before off-season events. Hopefully we'll see a lot of our friends soon!

With all due respect, now you are an alumnus. It takes more than graduation to become a mentor.
