Re: Gitchi Gummi Get Together

Good luck with the event! Duluth is awesome this time of year, and it'll be great to spread off-season events outside of the twin cities. I can't wait to see the list of teams attending!

We would love your help in web casting the event. Thank your very much.

What equipment would you be bringing and would you need any help with any additional equipment you guys won't be able to provide?

Unfortunately, that's a very busy time of year for our team... we're hosting our own summer camp and prepping for the State Fair competition early next month (in addition to our ongoing Alpha/Beta testing program). I doubt we can fit in traveling up to Duluth as well.

Re: Gitchi Gummi Get Together

857 might be interested in attending (I'd like to volunteer if the team doesn't come), but I have a question about hotel availability. Seems there is quite a bit going on that weekend (bike race, lawyers' convention, etc) and hotel rooms appear scarce and expensive. What are other traveling teams doing, and does anyone having lodging suggestions?

PS. If you're wondering, we live about 4.5 hours away.

The calcs are camping out at Jay Cooke State Park, about a 30 minute drive away. Hopefully the weather is nice in mid August.

It is a very popular time of year to be in Duluth... I would suggest looking for hotels in Two Harbors or Superior. Basically check the surrounding areas and you might be able to find something.

Re: Gitchi Gummi Get Together

I don't know about the rest of 3883, but I'd be enchanted to go (and would even risk camping). I'm also excited to see what 2175 has in terms of webcasts.

Duluth is a very busy that time of the year and this was actually the best weekend we could have. Duluth has a few hotels and probably some motels you guys can stay at. There are probably a few campgrounds you can stay at that aren't too far away that you guys can stay at.

If you guys decide to come would you like me to private message you, or even just post for other teams that would stay the night, hotels or camping grounds that teams can stay at? This early I won't know if these hotels are opens or campground are available during that weekend but you guys can also reserve spots where teams can stay.

2470 is trying to pull something together and get a couple of students up there with our robot!

We'll see what we can do.
