Oh, I know! Congrats on Dean's List

[Jana]

We are so looking forward to meeting you and getting to thank you in person for all of your help! From Rookie Team 4188!

[RoboMom]

Any updates on where this will be held?

[Cynette]

Well now, that is strange. I posted the update last night! I wonder what I did with it!


And we have a location - as long as the pit map published last night is close to actual!

We are describing it as:
At the Rookie End of the Newton Pits near Exit 4B

It looks like all the rookies are in the two rows along the back wall of the pits (which I am dubbing Rookie Row). Newton Division is the farthest from the arena, on the same side as the FIRST Store and Sponsors Row.

Here is a map of the section! We hope to see you there!
