Re: 2007 FRC Events, where are you going?

You will need to arrange for expedited shipping of your crate. It will be an added cost that you have to be prepared for. It's sometimes very expensive. There are other considerations to think of such as getting time off from work (for your mentors/chaperones) and time off from school (for your students) two weeks in a row.

From the 2006 game manual, "6.6.4 Back-to-Back Events
Contact the Drayage Company(s) well before both competitions to see if it can/will extend the crate arrival
deadline for your team. You must use the Shepard Exposition Services’ designated shipper. You cannot use
FedEx in this case, because FedEx does not pick up at events on Saturdays and your robot will not make the competition on time. You must make all arrangements early to have your robot ship and arrive on time."
