FYI team leaders, here is some good news for you!
If you had not yet heard, the regional will be viewable on Time Warner cable channel 4 (The RIT, Brockport, MCC educational access channel) Friday and Saturday 9 - 5 pm.

Please spread the word especially to those who may not have had a chance to see a FIRST robotics competition.
Perhaps you might think about putting up school posters for students at your respective schools or even (if possible) a cafeteria TV monitor so the students can watch the cablecast. Another idea might be to let have non-involved superintendents, principals or possible sponsors tune in.

The Cablecast will be available to Time Warner cable TV subscribers of any level (even basic $10/month cable) in Rochester NY and nearby suburbs.

The Cablecast has been sponsored by RIT and several Franklin robotics team mentors.
Also: there will be a WXXI Homework Hotline show with a few minutes of coverage of a City of Rochester FIRST robotics team. This will be aired Thursday March 8th at 5:30 pm. Please tune in!

Coverage of Homework Hotline broadcast includes all of NY state, portions of Vermont, Mass, Conan, PA and Montreal and Quebec!

NY city area will air the show on Monday March 12th at 4:30pm. If you know people in these localities who would be interested, please let them know.
