Re: Week 1 Event Notice - FIRST Robotics Canada

Thanks everyone who commented in this thread.

Crescent and Team 610 have been working hard with FIRST Robotics Canada to make this event one of the best regionals in all of FIRST.

It was unfortunate that the Hershey Centre was not available to host the GTRW this year, but thanks to the hard work of a lot of people behind the scenes, we were able to find a last-minute alternate venue for the GTRW in our school's Field House.

Although Crescent and Team 610 have a "large" presence in the Robotics community, we are actually a very small school. Our Upper School (Grades 9 to 12) has less than 400 students! Most people are very surprised to hear we are this small.

We are certainly punching well above our weight class in hosting an FRC Regional while still fielding a team to compete in it. But thanks to all the volunteers involved, we know that the event will be one of the best ever.

Speaking of volunteers, we are always looking for more excellent volunteers to help our event run! You can sign up on online via VIMS here:

And in addition, we could always use a few non-event volunteers to help us clear the Field House before the event, and restore it afterwards! We have Crescent teachers who've graciously volunteered to come in between their classes to help do this, but we could always use more hands! More information is available in the link below. Volunteering for clearing or restoring the Field House won't get you in during the event, however - you'll still need to volunteer for an actual EVENT volunteer position above via VIMS if you want to be able to get in to watch the event. Why not volunteer for both?
