Good & Bad at Atlanta

Over all I was pleased with Atlanta, but it could be even better with simple changes. Hopefully Atlanta and FIRST will listen to make it even greater next year. The Saturday Party was perfect I believe. Here's my take on Atlanta, please let me know what everyone else thinks.


Good
-food much better than Houston's (well, food I guess)
-Robots much closer to fields than Houston
-hotels were closer to event
-Party was awesome, best ever

Bad
-time from pits to stands was horrible (must be addressed), there were team members I never seen all day because of this.
-Most employees I ran into were not friendly
-Anywhere but the event and hotel was very unsafe after dark
-Our MC at Newton Division obviously was new to FIRST and knew little about the robots, Please pick people with some FIRST background.


I hope everyone had a great year and looking forward to next year already.
