Re: What to do with those NEVER AGAIN NEEDED beacon covers?!
OK... here is an idea.

During the opening ceremonies of a FIRST Regional (or Championships), propose a "beacon toast". We could clean 'em out, put some soda and ice in 'em, and propose a toast to FIRST.

Cheers!

Guys. Old school beacons are the bomb. Just imagine the robot up on the bar and than from the buttom seeing the old beacon spinning. It will be the coolest decoration in all of the competition
