Re: Season over all ready!!
Off season events... hmm...
Because we're run off the boyscouts we have tons boyscout related things to do off season (and on season). We often go to boyscout and cubscout meets to get the word of First out and show off our robots. And thanks to the boyscouts, we are able to take huge camping trips to places like the San Juan Islands in Washington.

One of our sponsors (HP) gives out about 6k to each first team in Oregon. In return, most of the Oregon first teams go and have a mini-competition each year for them. Aside from that, we make a float for our town's parade and we show off our robot in tons of other events.


It's sad that we miss so many other mini-competitions such as Rah Cha Cha Ruckus but maybe I could get my team to go to one of those instead of (or in addition to) going on a big trip... What are some oppinions on which mini-competition would be the funnest? And which ones would be the easiest for an Oregon team to get to?
