To anyone who may want to Referee at Sweet Repeat:

I went to register team #1213 for Sweet Repeat and found it to be a rather low-tech process. Download PDF form - print it out - fill it out - and mail it along with payment.

Given that it's scheduled for three weeks from Saturday, I'd recommend that you register ASAP. Otherwise, it may not happen due to an apparent lack of interest.

With that in mind, how about a roll-call here on ChiefDelphi? I'll start:

TARDEC-Groves #1213 is in!

Where can I find a list of registered teams?

[Bob Koehl]

www.teamfordfirst.org will be continually updated with teams who have registered or have indicated they will register for Sweet Repeat VI.

Teams planning to register should send an email to: sweetrepeat@teamfordfirst.org. Please include team number, team nickname, school(s), and main contact's name, phone number (day and night) and email address.

Team 45 is planning to attend and register soon.

Who else is going to FSR this year? It's only a few weeks away!

[Greg McCoy]

I went to Ford Sweet Repeat a couple of years ago and it was a really great event. I'm planning on going this year and reffing, so I want to see a bunch of teams there!

Off-season events like this in the fall can really help energize your team, especially freshmen who have never been to a competition before. Take 'em and make them catch the bug!

[Jack Jones]

Teams 33, 397, and 494 told me today the their check is in the mail.

Somebody sign up to DJ here, PLEASE? I'm gonna be reffing and don't care for their selection of Polka & Old time Rock and Roll all day. Totally un-GP to make us sit through that last year. It was so bad that I had to stage a coup to overthrow it and set my playlist up as the new DJing power.

I'll help you with music selection if you need it, just PLEASE someone with ACTUAL MUSICAL TASTE come DJ Sweet Repeat.

Could you get a local radio station to be at it?

If I could, I would but I have work until 3:00 on saturdays...

BTT - SOMEONE STEP UP!!!

[Lisa Perez]

I'll be reffing so I can't, but, like Dan, I'll help whoever volunteers with the music selection.

I'm 99% sure that 226 can attend. We just have to be sure we can find a teacher to go before we register.

Is there any team that would be able to lend us batteries and chargers for the day? We only had two chargers to begin with, and one didn't come home from Kettering Kickoff, leaving us with only one charger, and two batteries that haven't worked very well since the beginning. The constant dying of the battery out on the field is getting to be a source of frustration.
