Re: What it takes to Host a Offseason
Before you get to the stuff that plugs in and lights up, you should be nailing down the following:
1. Determine the Mission of the Event
Putting on an event can be a lot of work. Why are you holding the event? To give a special opportunity to area teams? To have an event which attracts competitive teams from other areas? To fulfill grant obligations? To provide a combination of a teaching/learning experience for novice teams, as well as a competition? Will you also be featuring other robotics programs like FTC or FLL or VRC? Will you be tying into any charity or local community cause? Decide up front the reasons why you are holding the event and write this down.
Then move on to Steps 1 & 2 in the most excellent IRI guide.
