Will there be remote kick offs in 2005?

[Andrew]

Has anyone heard anything about remote kick offs in 2005?

TIMS lists this as "TBD." In past years, these things have been set up by now.

[Roland]

of course there will be remote kickoffs, where else would people pick up their kits?

[Jeremy Roberts]

To my knowledge the remote kick-off information should be out by the beginning of next week.

As far as I know...the Technokats still have our remote site....

[Allison K]

I have received information about MI remote kickoffs (Two of them this year).

It used to be that you had to pick them up in Manchester or have them shipped to your team. Now you have the ability to goto a remote kickoff and pick up your kit. Some teams still don't goto a remote kickoff and have their kits shipped to them.

Well, I'm not exactly sure where UALR is, but I know the the 2 Michigan regionals that I'm aware of are in Northville and Grand Valley State University (Allendale), so if you're in the great, freezing cold state of Michigan, those are two options for you!

We've gone to the St. Louis kick off in 2003, 2004 and the Houston kick off in 2002.

UALR is University of Arkansas at Little Rock.

This year there is also going to be a remote kick-off at SUNY Stony Brook (Long Island, NY)

There will be a kick-off in Northville, MI next to Novi where previous kick-offs have been held

There will be a kickoff at the Ontario Science Center in Toronto.

There will be a kickoff in Swearingen here at USC. (If "Unfortunately, dancing is not allowed" rings a bell to you, then you've been there.)

Oh, and I hear there'll be a kickoff in Manchester, too. Although I wonder how many people would show up for that little ol' thing.

For people near NJ... I heard there was going to be a kickoff event held at NJIT this year.

We get our kit shipped to us overseas.
It takes ~ 4 days usually

Hmm......
If only we could have a kickoff here in england the current arrangement is everyone cramming into one person's house who has either satellite capable of recieving nasa.... or someone who has 1 meg broadband or more and streaming it off the web....
