That's great. It's nice that they remembered the ones who aren't going.

This year, due to funding challenges and limited slots at the FIRST Championship, only 5 of 26 NYC FIRST teams will be traveling to Atlanta.
A lot of the NYC teams are looking forward to this celebration/party, hopefully it will become an annual event.

Rich, you are so awesome it's not even funny.

This is a great idea, I just wish it was in Boston (so that maybe I could sneak out of Sigma stuff long enough to go watch the finals)!

Hello? .... can we get this certified?

(for the rest of the year "Newton" will trigger........ "YA BABY!")

This sounds like an awesome idea. After all this party is almost like a social at the end of a competition except it brings the teams who did not go to the nationals together to watch it over a broadcast or webcast.

Hopefully next year with some help this will become an official annual event!

Let the FIRST Annual B.A.P.T. 2005 Party begin -------- NEXT YEAR!!!
