2004 Robot Rodeo

[Andrew Rudolph]

At the robot rodeo this year we will be having a toy drive for 5 month to 10 year olds at the Women’s Residential and Counseling Center associated with the Homeless Coalition. Most of these kids come from troubled families and very little foundation which leads to a belief in their eyes that they have been abandoned. However, over the past few years the recreation room has fallen into complete disarray and there is a complete lack of toys for the kids to play with and enjoy. We have started a toy drive to collect new toys so that the kids can have things to play with.

Please bring New toys for the donation box. If every team would bring even a few toys it would make a difference in these children's lives. I have volunteered there myself to babysit and its a sad sight when they don't even have toys to bring them joy in an already difficult life.

I just wanted to make sure that you were still planning on the toy drive, and I'll spread the word to my team. I think the toy collection is a great idea, and I'm sure S.P.A.M. would love to help out. Thank you.

Tho some of our team lives in gardens, Both are schools are in riveria beach. And also the teams seem to be in no order Whatsoever. and on top of that its not in cells so you cant coppy paste it into excell and rearange it without actually entering everything yourself. Just saying, no big deal i guess.

This is my official I'm-outta-here post.

In case anyone has not heard yet, there is some road construction on Rouse Road, blocking the normal path to UHS. I am posting an alternate route.

We found that after taking the Rouse Rd. exit,
due to
major construction, that Rouse Rd. was blocked from shortly after the
exit all
the way to Colonial. This was the route to take tommorow.

There is always the chance that they will get the road work done by
tommorow
but they had several bulldozers out there.

We found that if you take the Alafaya exit off of the East West, go
north,
turn left at Colonial (by the Wendy's) then proceed on to Rouse Rd., you
can
then go right, go up the road about 1/2 mile, then turn right on to
Eastwood.
This will take you to University High School.

I just busted out the old safety glasses.

George, I bet you are resting up your voice tonight. Just try not to say "baby" too much. (Newton Division inside joke) "we got a 180 possibilities on the field baby hello"

I espeicaly liked the part when the goat ran across the courtyard and escaped.

They are in the order that they sign up in. Sorry about the type-o' as for where the teams are from I think we put whatever address we could find for your team. Its done all aoutmatically using software that we have, sorry about not being bale to copy/paste so on and so on. We had a nice system set up but then in the end we couldn’t use it with the hurricanes crashing our servers.

[Barry Bonzack]

We are in! Thanks to Dan Welsh and Nathan Pell for making sure my team has this opportunity, and a very special thanks to the entire team of the 1402 Patriots for letting us barrow a robot. I can't wait.
