2007 Wisconsin Regional

[Orominuialwen]

1306 will definitely be there this year! (Let's face it, we only have enough money to go to one regional, so why wouldn't we go to the one only 90 mi away! ) We're definitely hoping to improve upon the 26th (I think it was 26th) place we got last year, and we plan on defending, if not improving upon, our Regional Engineering Inspiration Award.

I just hope we won't have any medical emergencies this year! Last year our mascot passed out and had to be taken to the ER for overheating and dehydration. (He wore the badger suit for two hours without drinking anything or taking it off.) Later that day, another guy on our team jumped off a rock in the red panda exhibit at the zoo and sprained his foot. He ended up in a wheelchair for the rest of the weekend. When all the mascots were dancing, he put on our mascot suit and had someone push him around. (He was just out of that picture to the left.) At nationals, I wore the badger suit, and one of the other mascots who'd been to that regional asked what'd happened to me at regionals that I needed a wheelchair!
