Go to Post Most of all, I long to give others a chance to experience what I did with FIRST, to give people from my home town that opportunity, because FIRST really is that once in a lifetime opportunity that so many people dont get a chance to be a part of. It shouldnt be that way. - Jacqui Sutton [more]

We are taking 11 students and 4 parents (not teachers, stupid TDSB situation, why is it that we can't go with an affiliation with TDSB yet they paid our enterance fee?). Most of the parents are going shopping (complementry shuttle service from hyatt to malls). Our team is bringing LOTS of canadian flags, curtousy of Allan Rock!

Indeed, the Hyatt is going to be the Canadian headquarters in Houston, good luck tring to get into the pool!

Ah yes, Blame Canada! Blame Canada! I blame Canada for all our bad weather... all that cold air must've come from you guys...

Just kidding... I like Canada. It's a cool place. I just like joking about it...

8 Canadian teams. This will be awesome. The stands...all one area packed with Canadian flags.

It looks like the Hyatt is quite the distance to the Radisson...too bad.

See you guys in Houston (we'll be there around 2pm CST Wednesday).

I'm going to bring my collection of DivX movies (over 50), to the Hyatt. In order to have movies nights for the Canadian teams we need a laptop (our team 854 already has one), and a projector (I think the meeting rooms in the Basement of the Hyatt will have some, just that we're gonna have to beg the hotel staff) or a DVD player and a T.V. (Hyatt again?)

Good luck to all Canadian and Archimedes teams

Ohhhhhhhhh Canadaaaa

whoa! Looks like Canada is coming out in full force this year! It's gonna be a blast. Only 4 more sleeps until the championship is in full swing!

By the way, doesn anyone know where you can buy some huge canadian flags? I've been to a couple of places, but they only sold those dinky paper ones on little sticks. I'd like something that might actually be seen more than 10 feet away hehe I'd also like to try and get some little fake canadian flag tattoos, so if anyone has any info on that, hook me up!

Mucho Gracias!

To All you Hyatt crazies...since we booked WAY early...
we got into the Holiday Inn Greenway Plaza.

We'll have vehicles and we may just come over and check out the digs at the Hyatt.

Good Luck to y'all!

I'm European (more specificly Polish), so I'm not a big fan of hockey.

The Blizzard just took West Michigan by storm. We'll be there.

If you guys (my team) end up staying at Hyatt also, I'm going to explode. THAT would be insane.

But yeah, like Jeff said, we'll be looking for your updates both here and on our site every day
