Hey all!

Now that a few weeks of the competitions have happened and teams are beginning to qualify for St. Louis, make sure you RSVP for RoboProm! Spots are filling up fast and this year looks to be an amazing group of people and a ton of fun! We've established a paypal and are now in the midst of working out a few technical details. We'll let you know when it goes live!

Re: RoboProm Finalized Details!
 

:D ROBOPROM! Hooray! I went when I was a senior in HS, and now as a second year mentor and college student I'm still planning on going with the students from my alumni team. I wonder if I'll be able to make a tubeskirt dress for it this year... :rolleyes:

Re: RoboProm Finalized Details!
 

WOW its that time of the year :yikes:
The time to start looking for a RoboProm date lol :p

Re: RoboProm Finalized Details!
 

Bethany and I will be there again! This is easily one of my favorite traditions while at the Championship Event. Now to decide if I should go formal, or if I should wear the flight suit....

Re: RoboProm Finalized Details!
 

I hope my team and I go this year. I would love to socialize with everyone!

:) Cant wait to see everyone soon!!!

Re: RoboProm Finalized Details!
 

I will try to talk my team into going! :D

Re: RoboProm Finalized Details!

Re: RoboProm Finalized Details!
 

I will be there with Katie (Horsegirrl, from a few posts ago) and the students from 1923. So excited! Robo-Prom is always a blast.

Now, what to wear...

Re: RoboProm Finalized Details!

Re: RoboProm Finalized Details!
 

I want to go, I just have to talk to the rest of the team about it...

Re: RoboProm Finalized Details!
 

Whoa! I just found out about this and holy cow. You guys have been hosting this for 4 years already, and I just found out. I'm already trying to convince my team to go. Hopefully we'll see you in St' Louis.

Re: RoboProm Finalized Details!
 

Yay RoboProm! I don't know if I'm able to stop by like last year though. I do hope 1583 makes it to FWC again, I know the new boys will definitely love it like last year's did.
Thank you 399 for putting up an awesome event every year! :)

Congratulations to all the teams qualifying for St. Louis! We hope to see you at RoboProm :)

Re: RoboProm Finalized Details!
 

Awww. RoboProm is here again.
I got 19 students so far waiting to sign up and go.
Just waiting to see if more of our students are going to CMP.

Re: RoboProm Finalized Details!
 

Does roboprom include dinner??

Re: RoboProm Finalized Details!
 

Since Team 1868 qualified for St Louis we will definitely be there for the 3rd year in a row. Not sure on the count quite yet but probably 10-12 girls from the team are coming. We're trying to talk some people from 254 into coming too but I'm not sure if that's going to happen.

Re: RoboProm Finalized Details!
 

Are people allowed to go to the roboprom, or just our robots?

Re: RoboProm Finalized Details!
 

roughly how many of the spots are filled up? i'm just wondering if i should talk to the team leaders about it if we get to nationals...

Re: RoboProm Finalized Details!
 

this upcoming world is my 4th in a row... and I never have been to roboprom... i think i might just have to go this year...

Re: RoboProm Finalized Details!
 

Since RoboProm is supposed to start at 7pm on Thursday and matches end at 7pm on Thursday, will the time be pushed back or will it remain the same?

Re: RoboProm Finalized Details!
 

No, RoboProm does not include dinner, but there will be punch and cookies :)

Also, there are plenty of spots left as many people buy the day of the event. On Thursday of the competition, you may purchase your tickets in our pit.

RoboProm will still be at 7pm and end at 11pm. People may come whenever they please.

I hope to see you all there!! I am really excited about this event! It is always an incredible amount of fun! :D

Re: RoboProm Finalized Details!
 

All 15 of The Flying Platypi are excited to attend Roboprom this year! I very glad for this because I missed my prom to go to the NC Regional.

Re: RoboProm Finalized Details!
 

If we buy tickets on Thursday in the pits, are they $15 or at that point are they $20?

Re: RoboProm Finalized Details!
 

I rapped last year in front of everyone, defiantly a highlight of my life! Team 228, Gus, is pumped for this years Roboprom!

Re: RoboProm Finalized Details!
 

If you buy tickets on Thursday in out pit, it is 15 dollars. They are only 20 dollars at the door of the actual prom :)

Re: RoboProm Finalized Details!
 

I will be going to this year's Championship event as a student of Milwaukee School of Engineering, in the FIRST Aerial Competition event. Since I am both an FRC alum AND a college student participating in a competition, am I required to pay the $15/$20 fee or can I get in free as an advisor? I'd just like clarification on this matter. Thank you, and I hope to see you all at the competition!

Re: RoboProm Finalized Details!
 

I'm a little confused by this but hopefully I answer your question correctly... lol The people who do not have to pay are the mentors and advisors that are acting as chaperons to a group. If you are just an Alumni that has returned to hang out with your old team, which we completely support, we ask you to pay the entrance fee.

RoboProm, although its main intention is to provide a prom for those missing theirs back home, has developed into a fundraiser for our team and is a large contributor to our team's ability to travel. We ask that in the spirit of FIRST and gracious professionalism, all people attending that are not chaperons pay the entrance fee.

Thanks for asking about this though because I think it needed some clarification! See you there!

Re: RoboProm Finalized Details!
 

Mentors will have fun too!

Re: RoboProm Finalized Details!
 

Woot woot! I convinced my team to go! Team 1912 is going to prove that nerds CAN dance.

Re: RoboProm Finalized Details!
 

I'm not sure how many but Team 2016 will be in attendance. :)

Re: RoboProm Finalized Details!
 

Hello!! I know that everyone is super excited for nationals and I know for a fact that tons of students are excited for RoboProm! MOE 365 has about 20 students who wish to attend the RoboProm. I am in charge of rounding everyone up and getting their money to your pit ASAP! Cannot wait for this event, it is always loads of fun! Thank you guys so much!
GO MOE!
