Actually, it never rained (from 1999-2002 at least) when we were all out on those stands. It usually rained Thurs-Fri, and took Saturday off. It's nice that Disney turned off the rain for finals!
in 2002 the only time it actually rained / stormed was like only the afternoon hours (after the competitions) and night time. otherwise it was fairly hot that yr.

before graduating HS the one thing you MUST do is to at least attend 1 nationals. Its awesome. Your away from home for about a week and you spend that week with not only your team members but fellow teams as well. and depending where you stay you guys could like go to the nearest game room or be outside and play hacky sack while your teams competing.

my first yr for nationals even though i was a team leader still turned out to be the best competition for the simple fact that it was fun. espicially going to WDW. the only problem i had that year was that after the ceremonys saturday night by the time we got to go to WDW to have the last team celebration the park was getting ready to close :-( otherwise it was an experience i shall never forget. I even got a team picture from when i was in FL hanging above my bed post. goes to show how much i miss FL
