Awesome trophy guys!

Hmmm, Maine. It's got perfect weather in September. It's a little far from NJ, but not too bad. Hmmm...

And not far from the Bay of Fundy, largest tides in the world. Might be worth a trip.

The "fun" (where you see ridiculous tides) parts of the Bay of Fundy are a full day (8 hours) of driving away in Canada. Eastport does get a neat whirlpool though.

If you want great views of the coast, Acadia National Park is probably your better bet. Bar Harbor has more than enough touristy goodies if hiking isn't your thing, or after you've driven to the top of Cadillac Mountain. Rockland/Camden are only an hour and half away from Oakland and are also a nice place to spend a day or two.

Don, we would love to have team 1676 come to Maine. I think the trophy would look great in your trophy case.

Re: Mainely SPIRIT, Maine's FIRST FRC Event!

I know 1153 is coming up and have fun. It is an excellent time of the year for the new students to learn what it's all about, at the beginning of the school year, instead of "just you wait until the competitions".

Also, any qualms for us (me and my wife, not the whole team ) to come early and help build the field and volunteer? We've sent messages but no responses. Maine is such a nice place for a couple of days off, and it would be a shame just to go up for a 1-1/2 days.

Also, good work on that trophy! Ah-yep!

Re: Mainely SPIRIT, Maine's FIRST FRC Event!

Jessica,

I am sorry I can't give you a definite answer. We are still up in the air about the event, we still need three more teams for the event to be viable.

We will make our decision on September 8th.


Best,
Blake

Your website needs to list what teams are attending. Sometimes knowing who will be there or not helps draw other teams to the event.

Re: Mainely SPIRIT, Maine's FIRST FRC Event!

I'm sure there will be more teams after school starts. Maybe send a invite email to teams? Boston schools start Sept 8th (tight against your deadline).

Got an email last night - thanks for keeping us posted! Hearing about what you're still waiting on is better than no answer at all.
