Introducing August Adventure - a 2-Day New Jersey off-season event!
 

Teams 25 and 1089 are excited to announce a new, two-day off-season replay of FIRST OVERDRIVE, tentatively titled:

This co-hosted event will be open to up to *60* teams, and registration will be $250 per team.

We are planning on a number of activities, which may include an outdoor barbecue/picnic, and possibly a team social at Six Flags Great Adventure, which is minutes from Hightstown High School.

More info as far as activities will be posted as they develop.

Please address all registration inquiries to Wayne Cokeley at smwonder@comcast.net

Any details on lodging and an exact street address?

Re: Introducing August Adventure - a 2-Day New Jersey off-season event!
 

There are about 4 major chain hotels in Hightstown, NJ (East Windsor) along Rt 33. This is less than 1 mile from the school. As we get closer we will help with info as requested.

The school is on Leshin Lane in Hightstown, NJ.

Everything is within 1 mile of exit 8 on the NJ Turnpike- right in the center of NJ and halfway between NYC and Philly.

And also if my team doesnt go is there any way I can volunteer?

I think i might jusy pony up the money out of my pocket so 354 can go!

The exact street address of the school is

Hightstown High School
25 Leshin Lane,
Hightstown, NJ 08520

The school is slightly off the main roads, so directions from 295/195, Rt 130, and the NJ Turnpike will be posted and available closer to the event itself.

I'm sure that a lot of teams have a lot to think about between now and Championships, so we hope to get a bigger response and make a bigger push once that's over with.

I'd like to see an event as big and as some of the regionals out there, but that might be pie in the sky, being that I don't know how many teams who can operate at a reasonable capacity during the summer. It should be fun, though! :)

Sounds like an awesome time, I'll ask the captains and mentors.

Re: Introducing August Adventure - a 2-Day New Jersey off-season event!
 

I plan on making my way down there (if not with my team) then just to possibly volunteer & have quite an Adventure I'm sure!! (pun intended) :p

See everyone there!

Re: Introducing August Adventure - a 2-Day New Jersey off-season event!
 

If there's still registration open later on during the summer, I'll see. Right now we've got a whole lot of stuff to worry about. Sounds like fun, though. Keep us posted!

Hey Wayne!
If we could ship our robot to your school after CMP, we could do this!

Danny, I'm sure I can find something for you to do!
But I'll let you know when I have more details! =)

We would love to have you guys!
It was so great spending time with you at the NJ Regional last year,
and your team would be an awesome way to get our brand new event off to a great start!
I really hope we can find a way to make this work!
