So, that's what I'm doing right now. As well as getting together anything else I think we might need tomorrow that I can get from my house.

Whuuhhh-huh? Who told you that??? Geez, just when FIRST goes to extra lengths to make sure one set of officials remains focused on what they are doing and doesn't make up rules they shouldn't, another group pops up and starts in... Lets be clear about this - the Safety Advisors are just that - advisors. They have absolutely no regulatory authority at a FRC competition. They are not judges. They are not referees. They are not sanctioned event personnel with judicial authority. They can NOT tell a team to create a Safety Log or anything else. The U/L personnel that may be attending an event are there to observe and advise - they are not there to create rules or additional bureaucracy. If you find that this is happening, please notify the FIRST FTA, your Regional Director, and/or the event manager immediately.
