(Bayou is the only regional in Louisiana or Mississippi; Slidell is just on the LA side of the MS border only a few miles from the Gulf of Mexico.)

Send an email to frcteams@firstinspires.org for instructions. (Or I think the instructions are in TIMS too.) |
Thanks for the info, good to hear it from someone with experience in the matter. We are super excited to be working with some staff from Pratt & Whitney and have been really impressed with all of our communications with UTC so far.
