Re: Ramp Riot 2007: The Official Thread
Last night I received an incomplete Ramp Riot registration form from someone on Team 204. There must have been some sort of computer error when completing the online form.
If you are a main contact for Team 204 could you please go to www.team341.com and resubmit the registration? We would be happy to place you on the list. If you still have problems please contact me directly via aostrow1@comcast.net Thanks! Al Ostrow |

Re: Ramp Riot 2007: The Official Thread
If there is enough interest from the mentors on the teams attending Ramp Riot, I may come down and host a NEMO meeting (pending what my schedule looks like up here...). Last year we held a successful workshop on teambuilding. If you would be interested in attending a NEMO workshop on a particular topic such as mentor recruitment and retention, fundraising, public relations, team organization, etc., let me know.

2007 was sooo much fun. It is kind of disappointing that 102 will not get there :( (or at least, to my knowledge) I was really hoping to continue on with the 102 vs. 87 team spirit "fight" :p lol. But no fears, as Mr. Ostrow knows, I'm ready to volunteer :D |

If Team 102 would still like to go they could go on standby. Things change quickly in the early Fall. At least two teams on standby are there because they are not sure they can make it. So you never know. |

Re: Ramp Riot 2007: The Official Thread
Hot off the heels of successful NEMO meetings at Bash@theBeach and Duel on the Delaware, NEMO is coming back once again for our 3rd annual workshop at Ramp Riot!
Recent NEMO meetings have included discussions on recruiting and retaining mentors and students, fundraising and getting sponsors, getting media attention for your team, and my personal favorite, DUMPSTER DIVING (aka how to get free stuff for your team!)! :p So far I've had no responses from teams saying they are sending a mentor... Please share this info with your teams at your next team meeting. If each team sent at least one mentor to the NEMO meeting at Ramp Riot, we could have 35 people exchanging ideas! If you are an adult or college age mentor who will be attending Ramp Riot and are interested in attending a workshop on a non-technical area, please complete this registration form: http://www.firstnemo.org/rampriotregister.htm |

Re: Ramp Riot 2007: The Official Thread
Amanda and Dan,
Last time I spoke with Mr. Ostrow, he said to PM him/send him an email with your name and job you would like. He'll contact you when he gets it. As to anything outside of that, I do not know what is going on with volunteering but I know Mr. Ostrow will be glad to know he has people wanting to volunteer :) |

Re: Ramp Riot 2007: The Official Thread
What is cool to do on an extra day near Ramp Riot area if I end up staying over Saturday night? I'm looking for stuff close-ish (15-20 miles or less away) and that would be fun and open on Sundays. (And if possible, in the general direction of my travel back to CT)
I have no idea the geography of PA other than I know Philadelphia is kinda close? Anyways... if anyone has any good ideas, let me know. |
Re: Ramp Riot 2007: The Official Thread
Quote:
Center City Philly is 40 minutes in the opposite direction of CT, but definitely worth the trip. One thing I can think of right off hand is that the Art Museum is open on Sunday and if you enter before noon the admission is "pay as you wish". There are also a ton of other things to do in Philly. Definitely check it out. |

Please feel free to use Ramp Riot to your advantage. Many area teams are on the road all year and this is their only home game. Take this opportunity to invite your sponsors, potential sponsors, school administrators, your students, your families, and your community. One of our goals is to help teams inspire younger kids to get involved. Please feel free to send this circular to your elementary schools, etc. Lets fill the stands with excited kids!! Ramp Riot Spirit Our mission with Ramp Riot is to simulate the feeling of attending a regional, for the benefit of our rookie members. So please feel free to bring all of your banners, displays, spirit items, and buttons. Ramp Riot is about celebrating FIRST and our participating teams, please make this YOUR event! |
Re: Ramp Riot 2007: The Official Thread
To All Ramp Riot Teams:
Two notes about honoring Mike Wade and his contributions to FIRST. 1) Ceremony to Honor Mike Wade We will be holding a special ceremony after the lunch break to honor Mike. We ask that all teams stop what they are doing, make their way to the stands, and participate in this important acknowledgement. He gave so much to FIRST and to the entire circuit of off-season events. It is a sign of respect that we stop everything for Mike. 2) Food Collection and the Mike Wade Memorial Award We could think of no better way to honor Mike than to name the annual food drive award after him. It will forever be our most important award. Hundreds of families benefit from your food donations. This year's collection will go towards Thanksgiving meals for area families in need. Please do the following in honor of Mike: Collect as many canned food items as possible for drop off at Ramp Riot. (We will count these by team for the award.) Cans will be collected in the morning and delivered to the Mattie Dixon Community Cupboard by 2:00PM that day. Giving to others as Mike gave to us is the best way that we can think of to honor Mike's memory. We also encourage individual visitors to bring canned goods in the spirit of giving to others. Thank you for participating. |

Re: Ramp Riot 2007: The Official Thread
Just like last year, there will be an AndyMark table in the commons area, where people will be able to see AndyMark parts. We'll have our standard stuff, and some new stuff.
New stuff: 6" mecanum wheel (oooh, aaah) Super Shifter Dualie Spacer for aluminum omni wheels 8" Performance Wheel w/ bearing bore more sprockets (smaller plate sprockets for 25 and 35 series chain) Also, it will be nice to catch up with many friends. Sincerely, Andy |

Re: Ramp Riot 2007: The Official Thread
I'm trying to avoid some of the weekend NYC traffic tomorrow and am hoping to leave CT early - does anyone know if it's better to go (from Hartford, CT) 84 to 684 to 87, down the Garden State to NJ Tpke; -or- take I91 south to 95 and stay on it all the way down to 276?

Hope you have a safe trip down and are ready to RIOT at Ramp Riot tomorrow :) |
Re: Ramp Riot 2007: The Official Thread
I was wondering what time volunteers should get there. I know your schedule said 5:30 for 341 team members is this the time you want volunteers to arrive. If so I might be a little late bc I live an hour away.
I cant wait to see every one there.:yikes: Thanks you, Matt |
Re: Ramp Riot 2007: The Official Thread
I unfortunately can not attend the event today due to family matters, however I wish the teams and volunteers a good luck towards a great event.

Re: Ramp Riot 2007: The Official Thread
I unfortunately couldn't attend the Ramp Riot this year, and i was wondering how the days event went? Last year it was a ton of fun and I had a blast.

Re: Ramp Riot 2007: The Official Thread
Ramp Riot was quite the riot, but a fun one, nevertheless. :)
As for the results of the last off season replay of Rack 'N' Roll: Alliances: All are not necessarily listed in the correct order that teams were picked, but it's pretty close 1. 1218, 103, 1302 2. 365, 1712, 224 3. 104, 423, 433 4. 623, 87, 341 5. 1640, 539, 222 6. 25, 1403, 834 7. 357, 1030, 522 8. 709, 768, 2234 Each alliance also received a fourth partner. I'm not quite sure who belonged to which alliance, but I remember 173 being a part of the 4th seeded alliance, and 1219 (team 1218's pre-rookie) joining the sixth seeded alliance. 1 vs. 8 2 vs 7 3 vs 6 4 vs 5 8 vs 4 7 vs 6 8 vs 6 365 won the food collection/Mike Wade Memmorial Award, 357 won the Spirit Award, and 1219 won an award whose full name is currently escaping my remembrance. I'm sure Mr. Ostrow will post a more detailed summary. I'd like to thank our alliance partners once more for a fine run, and commend 1219 for playing some great defense during the semis and finals while 1403 was making repairs to their robot. As always, it was great to meet new people, and catch up with old friends. |

Re: Ramp Riot 2007: The Official Thread
I had an AWESOME time at Ramp Riot that is for certain :) Great job to all the teams who came to Ramp Riot. Thank you Al Ostrow and Team 341 for hosting such an awesome event - and to Al Ostrow for giving me the chance to emcee. Also thanks to all the other emcees and announcers.
Here are the photos I took at the event. All teams who were on the field, there should be at least one photo of you - feel free to take and use any photos guys :D Ramp Riot 2007 |
