Hopefully next year I can coerce my team to register. Though I did enjoy volunteering -- I've always wanted to get up-close and personal on the field... being a mentor, I've never been able to drive a robot in competition (which is as it should be), and this is the next best thing.

I think it went very smoothly considering this was your first time hosting the competition. My only recommendation would be to order more staff shirts.

I also think I sweated off about 15 pounds, but hey, that's environmental factors beyond your control.

Haha, the wonderful staff shirts.... We totally did not have enough money to order any more, between shirts, ryder trucks, food, and janitor fees we're pretty much in the hole as far as expenses went. Next year we'll have to figure out a more viable entry fee, don't worry kiddies, it'll still be one of the cheapest off-seasons out there! (as you can probably tell, we were in it for the fun, not the money )

Maybe next year we'll have to have a mentor match instead of clone wars... any teams willing to let some of your kooky mentors have a spin at the wheel?

Yeh, it was quite hot all day, as those who were planning it with me knew I was in Vegas till Friday morning, I wanted to go back there to escape from the NH heat!!!! The fact that it was 95 instead of 105 can be blamed on our lovely janitor Jerry (he's the man!) cause he borrowed us a jumbo sized fan to attempt to cool the gym down! Maybe next year the school will install air conditioning *crosses fingers*

Oh by the way, you owe me $150 for those 15 lbs you lost, you've now become a Pamela crash diet success story!!!!
