Re: shipping paper work

I'm on a rookie team that's going to St. Louis via the all-star award. I'm trying to sort out all of this. The FIRST website is unfortunately rather incomplete at this time.

For some strange reason, I was unaware that I was supposed to pick up a bill of lading at pit admin immediately after receiving the rookie all-star award. Chalk that up to being a rookie. I won't make that mistake again! The FRC people were nice enough to send a bill of lading via FedEx.

I've been in email contact with the FIRST folks, and have notified them of both the dead link to the robot transportation manual and to the lack of the "how to ship your robot" manual for this year.

Fortunately, I am working with a bunch of experienced mentors from another team (1726) that are helping me understand how it works.

Got a crate built, and now I just need to find out if I have to drive the bot to Phoenix from Tucson or not. Whee!
