2013 Boilermaker Regional

[waialua359]

This will be our 4th trip to Indiana in 4 years doing an FRC event.
Looking forward to spending a few days in Chicago first then driving down to West Lafayette to participate with all of you.

Many members of our school have either went to Purdue or have kids that went there.

135 will be there, should be fun!

As usual the Goats will be in the barn

We are looking forward to defending our #1 seed

So I think we should start a pre-regional scouting page.
We should include any details you think will be useful to another team.

I'm curious, who submitted Chairman's Award at Boilermaker Regional?

3176, Purple Precision submitted there, and we're excited to talk with all of the other teams who take time to create this awesome documentation.

1736 Robot Casserole will be there for the first time. The team is excited to be at an event new to us and be able to work with a few other Caterpillar teams from central Illinois.

I've never been to Purdue and am looking forward to seeing the campus.

Here's a thread with our robot pictures and video. I can answer any questions you might have.

Let me be the first to welcome FRC Team 359 and 1736 to BMR.
I can hardly wait till Thursday.

One thing BMR does very well is promote the host university. Thursday and Friday both have multiple campus tours - make sure your team members take full advantage of these. Adults too!
Other things you'll need to know:

Let's all go nuts!
Robots! Robots!

Boiler Up!

Looks like we won't be baking in the barn this year. See some of you tonight, the rest tomorrow.

Anyone excited?

[Alan Anderson]

I'm too busy to be excited. Maybe I'll have some time to relax and get excited on Saturday.

This.
10 years into this program, and the thought of a Sunday nap never fails to make me smile and yawn in anticipation. I'm definitely excited to officially compete with a new team. New minds, new challenges, fresh perspective.

I'll be there on Friday and Saturday. Best way to spend spring break.
