4 days til Lone Star. I'm so happy. My team been waiting a month to compete.
Good luck to all the teams coming.

With 5 teams having already won a regional (1477 (2), 231, 624, 359, and 2415) and a lot of deserving teams still looking to lock up a place at Championship. This week is going to be awesome. There shouldn't be too much trouble putting together 8 very solid alliances for eliminations.

Like to wish everyone, especially 1477 and 231 the best of luck at Lone Star, and also Team 3997 the best of luck on thier debut at Lone Star Regionals, Best of luck to everyone on the last week of regionals, cuz the next following weeks are the State and World Championships

[JaneYoung]

So excited that it is finally time for the Lone Star Regional!

I'll be traveling with the team on Wednesday and will be at the Regional on Thursday to facilitate a NEMO meeting at 1:30 p.m. Be sure and spread the word to your team's mentors. We'll have the room information available that morning.

Here's the NEMO website. It's chalk full of helpful information.

Wishing everyone safe travels and a fantastic competition,

Jane

I hope we get enough rest.
Our flight just got delayed 3 hours, we have a layover of 8 hours in LAX, then have to go to Dallas, then arrive in Houston 19 hours after arriving at the airport.

I hate AA.

I wonder if our whole group will even make it?
Now Dallas gets hit by tornadoes and half our group makes landing at some other unknown place.
It's too bad we got robot parts on that flight!

If anyone who is coming has spare 775, please bring them. We fear that our extras are not going to get shipped in time.

[rsegrest]

PantherBots will be at Lone Star again and I think we have some of the 775s that we didn't use. Will bring them with us. Team number is 2582 find us in the pits!!

[couvillion]

We could pick them up on our way by!
