Info for Teams Headed to St. Louis

Blog Date:
Friday, April 17, 2015 - 09:06

Today we have the second of two blogs focusing on 2015 FIRST Championship logistics from Toby Clarke, FRC Program Manager.

We are committed to make the Championship a great event for all involved. Part of this is a smooth move in which I covered in my previous blog. Equally well, we also need to help create a smooth and safe move out. With the updated schedule this year including qualifying matches finishing on Friday night and Alliance selection early Saturday morning, we plan to try something new this year.

The safest time to move 600 robot crates is when the pits are empty. On Friday night we are going to try and move as many robot crates as possible back to your pit so they are ready for your Saturday morning. For this to work we need your help. Before you leave the Pits on Friday night, and if even possible, please try and clear a 4’ x 4’ area (preferably 5’ x 5’) in your pit so that our staff may deliver your crate overnight. If you do this, you will find your crate waiting for you Saturday morning. If you are not able to do this, then you may request your crate later on Saturday but please be prepared to wait for delivery depending on the queue.

Thanks for your help and we look forward to seeing you all in St. Louis for a fantastic Championship experience

Umm, you want me to give up 1/4 of my pit while still competing?
