2003 Off Season Competitions - a list of what, when and where

[Andy Baker]

There are many off-season competitions happening out there, from the new Beantown Blitz in the east to Cal Games in the west. I'm just a simple guy from Indiana, and I have a hard time tracking down when and where all of these competitions are taking place.

So... please respond and post the details of your post season competition.

I'll start:

Hello all,

We're planning to host a friendly competition in West Springfield, MA. It is tentatively scheduled for the 24th of May, or Saturday of Memorial Day weekend. We're trying to work out all the many details as I post this. We plan to have full food service available and free spectator admission. Schools from the surrounding area, politicians, and businesses will be invited. Media presence has already been confirmed. Are there any teams interested in attending? Buzz and Rosie Robotics are already signed up. Please e-mail me at NicholasWong@wshsrobotics.com if you would like to attend the event.
