Re: [NE FIRST] 2014 New England Championship!

Sad to say that 1058 did not earn enough points and will not be attending the Championships in St. Louis. However, we had tons of fun in Boston, especially playing with 172 the Northern Force and 2067 Apple Pi! We were *that* close. I gotta say, the field delay before QF1.3 was probably the most fun I've had at an event in all my time in FRC. As sad as we are to be staying in New Hampshire during Champs, we'll have fun watching our fellow New England teams compete and take home Einstein gold next week!

319 received their invitation to CMP last night! We'll be hopping on the buses with the NE teams and going to St. Louis for Bob's first time in 19 years!

I'm just shocked that you haven't earned a spot before!

Glad to see you filling out the NE allotment of spots.

See you in St. Louis.

As a member of the field tech crew I can't say the delay was quite as much fun for us, but I'm really glad to hear it was a good experience for teams.
Giving teams (and spectators) a positive and enjoyable experience was our focus during the whole event.

Congratulations to all the teams attending the World Championships from New England, whether they qualified by winning an award, on points, as a HoF/legacy team or in one case from the waitlist(!).

Great News. I also was shocked when you said this would be your first time. Hope we play on the same field. See you in St Louis.

New England Teams!

We want to congratulate and thank you all for an amazing 2014 season. As many of you head into busy offseasons, we hope you can take a minute to give us feedback on the 2014 New England Championship Event. There are even a few questions for teams that did not participate, so we'd love feedback from everyone!

All team members are welcome and encouraged to participate, so please forward the link for our survey to your entire team:
https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1owq...?usp=send_form

Also, for any of you interested, we had a volunteer photographer that got some great shots of the event. If you choose to use these photos, please make sure to provide photo credit to Kevin Derwin (or KD Photography)!
https://www.flickr.com/photos/123465...7644134626694/
And a huge thanks to Francis & Colleen for creating the excellent daily wrap videos!! http://youtu.be/Lr7p_dzcQjU http://youtu.be/JaE7ThxKsZ8

We hope those of you that those of you that were able to make it had a great time, and we look forward to seeing you all at events in 2015!!
