Just to toss out a suggestion - could you update the OP with links to teams' posts as they respond? It would be a great help

As we get closer and closer to the regional, would anyone else like to contribute?

Hope to see you all at competition!

846 is getting up really early (4 AM) to catch the flight out to NYC. I've attached a "pokemon card" that we'll be handing out that was designed to make it easy on the scouts. We'll have copies at the event for teams to take.

Yes, someone might accidentally mistake you for team 846846, the Championship Rookie All Stars from the 2073 FRC season. (Oh, wait, that's not supposed to be announced for another 61 years... Darned time machine...)

We're looking forward to meeting you in NYC and showing you what the "other" ocean looks like...
