[Ken Leung]

Hi Everyone!

I am very excited to announce that registration for Cal Games 2003 is now
open. You may visit the registration page at http://www.wrrf.org/Calgames/
for event into, registration, awards description, and status of teams
registered.

When: September 20th.

Where: Woodside High School, Woodside, CA. (10 miles from Stanford University, map is included in the event info page)

What: The 4th Annual WRRF California Robot Games including the Full 2003 Stack Attack Tournament with "best-2-out-of-3" elimination format, plus 3 skill events, and WRRF & Workshop information for 2004 season.

Cost: Free to spectators. Entry fee for teams is posted in "register".

How many teams: Cal Games 2003 is open for 32 teams to register.

September 19th (Friday) will be open from 5pm to 9pm for teams to set up their pit area, inspections, and possibly some time for side events that night. Take advantage of this time to set up your tools and get your robot working. The pit will be opened at 7am on Saturday for registration and inspection.

Ten reasons to attend Cal Games this year:

1. It's a very fun family-oriented event.
2. It's a low-stress way to introduce your team to the competition.
3. You get to use last year's robot again!
4. New people can drive the machine in competition
5. Arguably the coolest awards from any robotics competition!
6. COMPLETELY community run!
7. A great way to network with other students and mentors in your area.
8. The more teams that participate, the more fun the competition is!
9. Show your school administrators and parents what the competition is really like.
10. Cal Games 2003 is the biggest off season competition WRRF has ever hosted!


Volunteering information: Volunteering positions will be posted on the registration page really soon.
