Unofficial.. and yes.

Last year 121 spanked a bunch of us in bowling on Friday night I believe it was - could have been Thursday maybe... I don't remember.
Who gets a five-bagger.. seriously?

If anyone wants to get together with RAGE or come over to our practice facility we are located approx. 5 minutes from the venue by car...

RAGE will be producing a guide to the area and posting it to our website soon. Well, as soon as I can get it together!

AND we will soon start to organize our second annual tailgating party. We are thinking of expanding it to include some hot foods this year (after seeing what other teams did at other regionals last year) but will probably ask for help from other local teams to pull it all together. If you are coming to the UTC Regional please mention it to your teams and then e-mail me if you are interested in helping out.

Fun things to do in CT?

I guess you could always, umm, gee. You've stumped me.

Just kidding, we've got great malls. And some movie theatres. And umm, did I mention we have malls?

[Jeff Rodriguez]

I'll see if I can get a RAGE bowling team together. If there's one thing we do better than big arms, it's bowling.

is it true that you get to go to dean kamen's house if win the new england regional????

that's what i heard

[Heretic121]

well there is no more "New England" regional as there is 2 regionals in New England...

I will be as well as a teamate or 2 will be attending UTC early friday morning for both friday and saturday of competition =D

[Corey Balint]

I should be showing up on Saturday at some point, trying to find a train that leaves early enough for me to get up there and volunteer. If i cant, ill get up there later and just be hanging around. Look for me in my team 25 get up. Ill be scouting and just chilling around. Bharat may be coming as well, we still have to figure it all out.

[tkwetzel]

I might show up at UTC...but it is a big might. It is at the end of my spring break and most all of my friends have spring break a week or two later, so I probably won't be doing anything. I would need to find somewhere to stay very cheap (if not possibly free). I won't know till we ge much closer to the event if I will be showing up or not.

[KathieK]

I'll try to get the guide to the area done ASAP, and include some hotels nearby that are inexpensive.

You can also drive by Lake Compounce and stare at the brand new lazy river for 2005 and my love, Boulder Dash

We're planning the tailgating party now... but we are soliciting help from other local teams this year so we can expand our food choices. I hope to get an e-mail out to teams who will be attending the UTC regional this week. Please share this with your teams - several teams commented last year that they didn't know about it in advance. We had lots of fun last year, including a race between a segway and Dean... at least, it looked like Dean! And who can forget eating our birthday cake out of the back of the pickup truck?

Who: anyone who comes to the UTC New England Regional
What: Second Annual Tailgating Party (it's a tradition now)
When: Saturday, March 12, 2005 Sunrise (OK, maybe a little after sunrise)
Where: Meadows Music Theatre parking lot
Why: Because RAGE likes to party

For more info, PM or e-mail me.
