Attention New England Teams!

And anyone else interested. Would you like to see Maine in the summer? Get some fresh caught lobster (lobstah as we say it)? How about a cruise on Casco Bay? Well Team 58 was wondering, while you are visiting, would your team be interested in an off-season event in South Portland Maine? We are targeting July 25th but are really unsure if teams will make the commute in July. If your team is interested, please let us know. We are trying to gauge interest and will appreciate the feedback.

If I still lived in New England, I would definitely make the trip to come volunteer! Summer would actually be the easiest time for me personally to attend an event, because everything else in life quiets down then.

However, my team never used to meet over the summer, and therefore never really pulled together travel to compete at any summer off-seasons.

Not sure if that helps at all?

1058 does meet during the summer and usually tries to go to as many offseasons as possible. I'll try to gauge interest.

Maine is pretty far away

166 wanted to attend 2846's event, Mainely Spirit as a gesture of thanks to all of the Maine teams that came down to Mayhem in Merrimack 2014, but we had existing conflicts on that date.

I'm sure we would be likely to go especially considering how much closer yours would be than 2846's.

Now, July 25th is the weekend after IRI. I'm not sure how many NE teams are going to IRI, but I'd imagine they'd be sort of burnt out after a long trip out to Indianapolis.

Looks like we will have to move the event to July 18th.
