Does anyone know when and how long these places are open? My team is bothering me for times... If anyone has any answers they can log onto Team 74's Forum. People keep on asking me for times and all I can answer with is either "I'm too busy to find out" or "I don't know" or a combination of the two.

FYI: the link will take you directly to the thread.

I spoke with an employee at Stone Mountain last week. The park is open until midnight, howver they are not set up for their official season as of the Championships, so attractions may or may not be open. I inquired about hosting a teambuilding event during the evening, followed by their laserlight show. The show is not running then. The teambuilding would have been too expensive for our team, unfortunately. I sent them material about FIRST so they could try and arrange to have regular activities open when we are there next year.

The SciTrek science museum held special events for FIRST last year but I see they suspended operations in August 2004.

Like last year, we are i think goin to the Braves game again and going to the Underground place.

I have heard rumors were going to a Braves game...I want to do something because last year we did nothing the whole time when we weren't at the dome.
