In your shop, because you bought them in the fall.

Sorry, that's next year. For those that didn't know to plan ahead, your friends down in Kokomo, Indiana have your back. http://www.andymark.com/Bumpers-s/253.htm Scroll down a bit. (And, while you're at it, browse around the rest of the site. Just don't blow your entire robot budget there.)

Now, I do have to give you guys fair warning. We don't know for sure that we actually will need pool noodles this year, given that we didn't get any blog posts about making sure you have your supply. But, with the bumper rules as they have been for the last few years, I think your concern is reasonable. And, as noted, one source is in Indiana.
