Who's Coming - Arizona Regional - Will we be your next Pick?

[gilachick]

I can proudly say that the new team in Tucson, Az will be there. And we will be lookinf forward to seeing the Gila Monsters since all the mentors come from that team. And I agree with Mr.loyd. Mike Rush is the heart and soul of the Gila monsters and in my humble opinion we try hard and we win big. So all of you teams come feel the heat in Arizona.

*whew* It's looking more promising that we'll have funding for 2nd regional at AZ.

Hope our 2 rookie teams can come with us.

Things are really looking great here in AZ. We currently (11/8) have only 5 spots remaining. I'm sure we could squeeze a few more if needed.

We are glad so many out-of-state teams have decided to come. Many people have no idea what Arizona is like, and this trip will open up many eyes. Suprise, it's not all dirt and sand like in the old time western movies.

Plan on having a "Great" time during your time here, and get ready for one of the best competitions and team socials you have every been to.

Now our rookies need to find funding for 2nd regional to join us.

Looking forward to an adventure...

Doing the HAPPY DANCE!!!

Our airfare and hotel is paid for. 38 people going! 11 adults, 27 kids. 2 of the kids are from rookie team Santa Monica and 2 are from rookie team South High (we're following Chatworth's lead and inviting 2 student reps from rookie teams to join us at a regional/national), 1 from Peninsula High who's part of our team cuz his school wouldn't get their own team started, and our 10yo computer programmer whiz.

Let the good times roll!

Trying to get a early idea on who may be signing up to come to the Arizona Regional as their 2nd or 3rd regional event?

Would love to have to make more room our first FIRST year.

Please post and let us know....

Temps that time of year are in the mid 70's and sunny for all of you snowbound teams. Nicer than at Nationals because of low low humidity.

Isn't Arizona in the middle of the desert? And it's only 70 degrees? wow

Team 812 from San Diego will be there. Congrats to AZ for getting your own regional.

[WakeZero]

And what a regional it will be! I see many eyes pointed our way because there will be a lot of experienced teams bidding for power... not to mention any new beasts that may or may not crush their way through

You may have seen and heard him at the 2001 World Series, or a various MLB, NFL, NCAA events, or even at the 9/11 Tribute in New York.
Nationally renowned trumpeter extraordinaire Jesse McGuire has agree to play the National Anthem at the opening ceremonies at the Arizona Regional.

THANK YOU JESSE!

Team 234 is looking foreword to coming down to AZ. One of our sponsors is an AZ based company (LHTEC). They are a Honeywell and Rolls Royce partner and has covered some of our way there. Our inspiration for coming out there was the fact that 330 came to our out of season event here in Indianapolis (IRI) so we thought we need to get out and see some teams that we only see at Nationals and mix it up a little. We are looking foreword to seeing you all there especially since it was a neg. 4 degrees on my way to school this morning.


I hope our robot gets there since we will be in Richmond, Va the previous weekend.

We are bringing:

23 students
7 Engineers
4 Teachers
1 College Student
15 Parents
