WIWI is coming Wolcott CT

[Teammax]

"Where is Wolcott Invitational"

June 9th 2012
Wolcott High School
457 Boundline Rd
Wolcott CT 06716

We are keeping the team limit at 24 teams. Last year we filled up fairly quick so I will post again when the registration is going to open. Once again we are looking for a very fast paced day with a lot of action. There will be


* 1/2 time human player challenge
* Mentor only robot that competes in the qualifying rounds
* after the fun we had last year we are also continuing our guest announcer spot where YOU (yes you) can be the play by play announcer for one match
* The always amazing Jack Kentfield as our Master of Ceremonies

As part of the re-launch of the Max website, Where is Wolcott? will have it's own section of the site dedicated to all aspects of the event. Make sure to check it out for full details on the event, directions, current list of attending teams, as well as the latest and greatest on what's planned for this year.

Check it out! wiwi.max1071.com

Event Registration is now open and available here on our website. Just follow the instructions on the registration page to get started, and you'll be taken care of from there.

Also once again we have a Facebook Event Page setup. Check off that your attending to let your Facebook friends know and check out the even't wall to chat with other attendees.

Looking forward to the event!

This year's half time game is getting finalized but we will have human players play a version of "Around the World". Make sure you sign up and show your shooting skills

I want to come! The timing might be tough for me though, I graduate the day before.

We're hoping to hold a NEMO meeting at WIWI again this year.

We just received our 12th registration which means the event is already at half-capacity! :O

Public Relations got together the first of hopefully many promo video's for the invitational this year, go check it out! http://youtu.be/h2EbueutqFw

My team would really love to go, it seems fantastic, but we were wondering how much it costs, as we are a bit short on funds, but it seems fun and we can probably be there. I just need to know the registration fee before I can present it to our head mentor. It sounds fantastic, and so far the team list looks exciting.

I want to absolutely apologize for not getting this public sooner then we did.

The cost per teams is still $200 as it has been in years past.

We're really glad to hear your looking into coming, and hope things work out and that we'll see you in June.

Thanks for the info. I will discuss it with my team, we are just a bit busy with championships and shipping this week, but I will make time.

Just hit 22 a few minutes ago, which means we only have 2 spots left. So don't wait much longer to sign up, cause there's going to be a lot of fun you won't want to miss.

The current list of attending teams is located here:

Today we are exactly one month out from the event! Everyone's getting very excited, and I gotta say things are shaping up to look like we'll have an amazing event!

Anyway I just really wanted to bump this thread now that the excitement from Champs has died down so we can get the discussion going!

Team 1124 will see you there!

Earlier this week we emailed in with regrets that we needed to pull out this year. It's the same date as our senior prom.

We are still listed as participating, though, so the next team on the wait list should have been notified.
