[HighlandersFRC]

We are another rookie team this year and have some ideas and tips from our experiences. First thing we did was look at other pit ideas from past tournaments and see what we like and what we didn't. Our team decided to create a 2X4 structure that can support peg boards, bulletin boards and banners (and some day down the road a monitor). We attended 2 regional tournaments this year and the first one we struggled to display items like the Chairman's award, Entrepreneurship submission, Safety manual and other documentation. For the 2nd tournament, we went with double stacking 2 end tables we found at Target and putting side pocket holders on them and putting the monitor on top of it (bolting down the monitor to the top shelf). We received the Rookie All Star award at our first tournament, but decided not to display it when we attended our 2nd tournament. We displayed our buttons in a bin on the end table and put a sign that said "Take one"...We printed out several copies of all documentation so that the judges could take them and not return them...I hope some of this helps and you see something in the pictures that can help as well.
