Brunswick Eruption is in fact our turn to host the "Mt Olive" game. Paul K. and I talked it over and NBTHS is taking it this year and BRHS will probably host next year.
We really had fun at the Mt Olive event last season but I felt it was a little small. Therefore we are looking for 24 teams, a crowd of 5000, lots of press and a number of extra games which will supplement the FIRST replay. We want to make the little kids special at this event. We are also planning some "glitz" events too. As soon as the Nationals are past we go into full scale planning a promotion for this one.
NBTHS has a BIG gym reserved as well as a commons area for feeding and an auxiliary gym area for pits if we need it. We are also right down the hall from the science labs and the tech shop- great battery charging zones.
NBTHS is about as central in the state as we can get- right at the intersection of Rt 130 and Rt 1 and about 5 miles from the Turnpike.
Paul came out and saw the site in February and left duly impressed. You want to be at this thing!!
There will be robot games (simple stuff) for robots of all FIRST seasons so if you want to bring back that old favorite there will be a place to show it off again.
This will be a truly memorable event! Be there!!!
