NEW DUEL TRAFFIC FLOW / USE OF EVENT SPACE
At Salem Community College, we will NOT be able to use the main
entrance to Davidow Hall, the lobby, and previous concessions area.
Because of this, we are erecting a tent (the Duel Big Top) in the parking
lot adjacent the loading dock doors from the Field House. Please
read the TEAM PACKET information and an additional e-mail that
is being sent out with maps.

PPPAfrica Sneaker Drive - Team 316 Needs Your Help!
We are once again collecting used adult sneakers at the Duel on the Delaware. Our goal is to collect 600 pairs of sneakers because with 600 pairs we can lift one family out of poverty in Africa forever!!! PPPfafrica refurbishes and sells the sneakers. The money it receives from the sale goes to providing a well-integration system, seeds and livestock that allows a family to enjoy a perpetually sustainable income.
Just think, if each team could bring at least 10 pairs, that would get us half way to our goal. The team bringing the most sneakers will receive a $50 Home Depot Gift Card. Look around your house, find those all sneakers and donate them to a good cause.
If you need more information, please feel free to contact us at sjrobotics@gmail.com.
