Prom anyone????

[Rachika Garcia]

So we are planning on having an robo prom in Atlanta. But in order to do so we need to have enough people interested, as in teams in part or in whole. We are planning on having it in a convention room at the Hyatt on thursday night. Is there any interest to do so? there will be a small (under 10 USD) fee at the door just so that we can cover costs i.e. dj, room, etc.. Please let me know ASAP if you are interested.

Is there a need for a second thread about prom started by you?

Hey I hav a question about this. Do we have to be all dressed up and nice and what not? A couple of us CircuitRunners want to just come and hang out since we are staying at the Hyatt. Would that be alright or would we have to do the whole dress up thing?

[Rachika Garcia]

You can come as you want. there are no requirements.

i'll most likely stop by, if my team comes, we already got rooms ready for us at the Hyatt, it would be nice to meet new teams, seince i only know teams from the FL regional from 04-07 and Philly 05

There seems to be a lot of interest in this. I know a lot of people on our team (mostly girls though-- and I'm not sure you'd want to see the guys on our team dance...)

What would the fee cover? Are you planning on getting a banquet room or something, and would there be food, dj, etc?

Count me in!!!!!!!! I know a lot of the kids on SPAM team 180 are interested, and our sponsor said he was cool with it.

...it'd be more fun if everyone dressed up though. a real FIRST prom. (spirited semi-formal?)

[Dan Richardson]

Do you need a dj? :-) I should be around and most likely driving up anyways.

[Adare180]

this is why we love dan. now everyone must go! gotta dance!!!

[Dan Richardson]

heh, we'll see want to get some more info First. But it sounds like a cool idea.

Just get out the SOHO cups, 20 2-L bottles of [A&W root] beer, a couple ping pong balls, and we'll have ourselves a pregame for it!

If there's an event, people will find a way to pregame for it.

Wish I could be there, but I can't.

What? How would that be scaring away the mentors? The pregame sounds like more fun than a dance. I'm not a dance person, but I do randomly dance like the white guy I am.

One of the best songs in the world for getting a bunch of people to dance is SHOUT by the Isley Brothers -
You know you make me wanna shout!
Kick my heels up and shout!
Throw my hands up and shout!
Throw my head back and shout!
Come on now shout!

Before you know it people are dancing.

so, will this be open to all or just teams staying in hotel?being an old fart,parent, mentor, i'm not sure i or hotel would appreciate 150 teams showing up when word got out that there was a "PARTY AT HYATT". i know you guys are a special group of kids,and the only thing i worry obout is you guys might figure out how to take over world, but it could get bigger than you think.remember alot more people look at cd then just post.with that being said,910 out of michigan is staying there, and i'm sure some if not all would show up. will bring it up at next meeting and get you some numbers.
