Is there an entry fee? Since 116 is starting to run low on budget, we need to consider those into our decisions. If we can fit it into our budget, signs look promising to 116 joining in the fun.

Question: Are you going to be using a FIRST field? If not, where did you get it? Thanks.

[Kyle]

SOOOO many off seasons I don't know what to do...

There will be an entry fee (probably about $100) that will most likely be refunded as "travel reimbursement" like the MD state Fair.
We are using the NASA GSFC field, courtesy of Mike Wade and the crew.
We are working hard to get all the details finalized asap.

Hmmm, that's the weekend before summer term finals, but the other members of my senior design team haven't ever done FIRST before and need some exposure.....might be able to pull a road trip down
