Greetings Teams:

All FedEx shipping airbills have been sent (via FedEx) to your Shipping Contact's address.

If you do not receive them by end of day Thursday, February 17th, you must let us know right away. Remember, robot ship is Tuesday, February 22nd 5:00 pm local time.

**IMPORTANT** Robot Ship Verification Process**

All teams must verify that their robot has shipped within 24 hours of the robot's departure. Please do the following:

* Go to TIMS (www.my.usfirst.org)
* Go to "Robot Shipment" Tab on home page
* Enter your Tracking Number where provided. Please remember, when you enter your tracking information online, you do not need to mail a hard copy to FIRST!
* From drop down menu select your shipper (FedEx, UPS, Puralotor)
* Press the Update button - please don't forget this step or the information will not be captured!

If you ship via another carrier you must mail us confirmation within 24 hours of shipping. Please read Section 6.4.5.1 for full details. Teams delivering their crates to drayage must provide FIRST with a Time and Date Stamped Receipt.

If you have any questions please contact us at frcteams[at]usfirst.org

Go Teams!
