When do you leave/return?

[cgmv123]

What time are you planning on leaving for the championship and returning?

BadgerBOTS will be leaving our education center around 6:30 on Wednesday and returning around 4:30-5:30 on Sunday. (We are leaving just after the FIRST Finale)

[Koko Ed]

I am heading down on the 20th and coming back the 29th.
Anyone who will be down in St. Louis early (Tuesday) I heard there is a need for volunteers to help assemble the fields. I'm helping out. Will you?

We're coming out of Overland Park, KS, and we're leaving ~9:00 on Wednesday, and leaving right after Champs final award ceremony. While I'd love to stay for the Finale, our head mentor has other thoughts about it...perhaps Senior year, provided we qualify, I can get a group of my friends to stay behind for a while, just for the experience

[Andrew Schreiber]

I land Wednesday morning and leave Sunday afternoon.

SOTAbots are flying into St. Louis from Seattle on Tuesday afternoon and leaving Sunday morning.

Hoping to relax and explore the city with the team a little bit on Wednesday before the pits open.

Arriving in time to help with inspections Wednesday and heading out after the finale on Saturday.

Anyone need a room mate?

We are driving from Southern Louisiana. We will leave late Tuesday afternoon, spend the night near Memphis and drive the rest of the way to St Louis on Wednesday. This way our advance team won't have to leave earlier (and hence the need for additional transportation).
As we did last year, we leave after ceremonies on Saturday, drive through the night and arrive home Sunday morning. I must say, robotics kids are pretty weird on a bus around 3am.

Haven't seen our plans for this year, but last year we left Tuesday night and arrived in St. Louis on Wednesday morning. We left directly after Einstein, arriving Sunday morning around 8:00 AM to a group of parents welcoming us home with donuts. (Mmmm, donuts...)

[Sayrah]

Sunday to Sunday. Headed down to the venue on Tuesday to do whatever is needed (including helping with the fields if that is what is needed Ed!)

We're scheduled to land at 6:30pm on Wednesday (ouch), but we're scrambling to see if we can get 5 people to fly out Tuesday night or very early Wednesday morning.

We're flying from AZ at 7:30am on Wednesday then leaving Monday morning after a trip to Six Flags on Sunday

I will be along with my mom and another mentor from our team.

We will be leaving late Monday night/early Tuesday morning to get down there to set up. I will be leaving early on Sunday to be at work by 1pm. Luckily we are only coming from Kansas City so it's about a 4 hours drive.

We are leaving Ithaca, NY at 7:00 on Tuesday and driving for 16 hours. It is going to be hellish, but hopefully we'll all be sane when we get there.

[MrForbes]

planning on leaving bright and early Monday morning, and hopefully make it back some time Tuesday. Long drive from Arizona.
