Hello Everyone! It's hard to believe we only have a little more than a month left until the 10th annual Ruckus! As we approach the event, there are few updates we would like to share.
Previously, we announced that if registration were to re-open due to spots becoming available, we would announce this at least one week in advance. Well, here is your lucky chance if you couldn't make it in the first round.
Registration will re-open at 8 PM on Monday September 15th and will remain open until we have filled the vacant spots at the event and have a few additional teams queued to fill any future cancellations. Filling of open spots will be done
on a first-come, first-serve basis, ordered by time of registration. All teams will be placed on a wait list and notified their registration was received. A member of our planning committee will notify the team contact within 24 hours of the registration that they are either filling an open spot or of their position on the wait list (based on time of registration and spots remaining open at the time). Currently, we presently have TWO (2) openings for teams. Teams past this initial opening quantity who register will remain on a wait list as long as they desire, kept in order by time of registration, to have the opportunity to fill any further spots that open.
Teams accepted to fill a spot must pay the registration fee in a timely manner to secure their spot. When notified that your team is filling an open spot, the planning committee member will help to make payment arrangements.
If your team is interested in filling the vacant spots, check back on this page when registration re-opens on Monday September 15th at 8 PM! This is also a reminder to registered teams that payment is the only way to secure your place on the list.
Next, we are excited to announce that we have several teams attending this year that were chosen to participate in the beta-test of the 2015 Control system. Because of the tremendous value of testing the system in a competition environment, participating teams will be permitted to use the new system if they would like.
Further details are outlined on our website under the "Rules" section.
Lastly,
volunteer registration is still open. The success of another amazing event depends on our awesome volunteers, and we would love for you to take part.
