Re: Give us a waver*FREE Robots*God Bless

Please send some snow on over to SE Michigan, our plows could use the work!

As a few others have said, at this point, it's too late to have planned for anything. I also understand the situations of teams who work out of their schools or sponsor's workshops - historically for our team, if the school is closed because of the weather, we couldn't get in. It's also very hard to predict and plan for school closings.

At this point, there's not a lot you can do to the robot if you're cut off for it. However, you should know approximately where you left off. If it's safe to drive in your area, try meeting at someone's house to have a general meeting. Figure out EXACTLY what needs to be done when you get back to your facilities, how it will be done, and who will do it.

Oh, and if you haven't finished your Chairman's, Woodie Flowers, or Website submissions, now would be an excellent time to do that. And if you hadn't even thought about submitting for Chairman's, why not give it a shot now that you've got a ton of time to work on it?

Good luck!
