[Freddy Schurr]

Is there any teams out there having Pre-Competition Events to test robots. If so where and when and what time. Let this be the thread to discuss this!

Charger Robotics (537) out of Sussex, Wisconsin is hosting a pre-ship scrimmage on Sunday, February 19th from noon until 4:00pm. Great opportunity to test out your robot and tweak any problems prior to shipping it.

Teams need to sign up ahead of time for the event.

Good luck!

Team 25 is having a VERY informal rally on Sunday the 19th for NJ area teams. We will have a partial field and teams will be able to try out the new babies. So far we have 6 attending.

If your team is interested PM me and we can set it up.
