Please consider helping Sam to help the Chaesapeake Regional.

Sam,

If you cannot find anywhere to share, a couple of us 2199 alumni have apartments at UMBC you can crash on. Campus is about 15 mins away from the Convention Center. We do plan to take the Light Rail down Friday and Saturday. Shoot me a PM if youre interested.

Sent out to the teams attending from the Asst. Regional Director Bill.

Welcome to the Chesapeake Regional!

We're looking forward to seeing you in just a couple more days. Here are some final notes as you get ready to attend.

1) Message from the Lead Robot Inspector, Anne Shade: The Chesapeake inspection team is looking forward to working with all of you later this week. To help make our jobs a little easier and hopefully speed up the inspection process, we’d like to ask the teams in addition to the required electronic version of the Bill of Material, to also bring a printed version of the BOM. Thank you and see you all soon!

2) See our Parking and Loading information here. See you bright and early on Thursday.

3) The Chesapeake Regional will be webcast, thanks to the efforts of Team 2641. The webcast will be hosted on their site:
http://team2641.com/2011-regional-webcast/ and will be linked from www.mdfirst.org.

4) Most of you have responded to our request for Team Social, photographer and hotel information, and we thank you. If you haven't, there's still time and a bit more space. You'll have one final chance on Thursday to sign up for the Team Social, but we will have to close it off when we reach capacity.

Some fine weather headed our way. Temps in the 60's to 70's+ during the day. See you in the pits.

Shhhh. Don't jinx it. Look forward to returning to Chesapeake.

T-minus 1 day. Who is excited? If you need any kind of help please stop by our pits (836), and ask.

See you soon.

Safe travels all!

Didn't have a too bad of a day overall in Baltimore. Field ran pretty well the whole day, only a few teams had problems connecting to the field. This is 340's first time at the Chesapeake Regional and we are having a great time so far!

Some teams to look out for this weekend would be:

836- During practice day they we're consistently putting up an ubertube, scoring two racks and placing their minibot every match.
1218- well rounded robot who can score 4-6 tubes a match and place their minibot
250- efficient and consistent tube scorer.
365- starting off kinda slow on practice day, but I have no doubts that their true green will show this weekend.

It's gonna be a great weekend!

I believe that this is only working on IE, I could not get it to work on chrome..did not try another browser once I got it to work on IE.

Chrome is working OK for me but it was cutting out on FF. Que sera sera.

They're some great people like the ROBOBEES and The TECHNOWARRIORS at chesapeake, they are doing very well. If anyone can give me a update of the standings from fridays rounds that'd help me greatly. And if you could give them to me before 6 45 AM tomorrow that'd be even more wonderful. =) please and thank you!
