Congrats 1153!!! Glad to see you made it in!

For the first year yes there are things to improve but kudos to the NEFIRST volunteers for what has been a very smooth transition to the district model!

3467 is very excited for this weekend!

Start driving!!! At least you're not in Maine, you might miss the load-in entirely

Team 5122's drive time to load-in with no traffic

4 hour drive for our furthest Maine team (and a Rookie!)...be tough to find out at 2pm that you're in!

[MooreteP]

So why are there only 53 teams listed as registered?

I need to create my spreadsheets.

I would still take a phone call tonight and be there in the morning. Will be there on Saturday to watch the awesome competition though.

Based on our records it was 3323 who dropped

Wow, both 3323 and 5129 played with us in elimination alliances this year. Hearing that neither of them will be attending Boston (after qualifying) is pretty disappointing news.

Teams,
HUGE HUGE HUGE Apologies for the last minute notice, but we were just notified that teams need to bring their Driver Buttons from Past Competitions to the Championship Event. An email to all main contacts will be sent shortly, but please spread the word!!!!! Thank you!!

Ahhh yes, thanks for the clarification, that's a bummer.
In this situation it's not fun if you don't know you're competing or not.

When does the Webcast begin?

[Drew4564]

Teams 4564 and 5122 have started the long ride down, and are over halfway there. Neither of our teams can wait to compete with all of the great teams that'll be there!
