Re: 2008 Chesapeake Regional
Chesapeake Regional Newsletter to the teams-Update #2-January 31, 2008
This is UPDATED Information since Update #1: 1. Access to the Academy Grounds: http://www.usna.edu/FIRST/ 2. USNA Admission talks/Tours of the USNA • Information about the USNA and admissions will be available. For tours, please contact the visitor center. http://www.usna.edu/NAFPRODV/VC/ 3. Team Social: • There will be NO official Team Social scheduled for the Chesapeake Regional -2008. I will pass on any information about team-sponsored social events to all the teams. 4. Volunteering: • Still recruiting lots of volunteers to help out at the event. https://my.usfirst.org/vims/logon.lasso?page=logon • We still need referees and team queuers. • Be sure to designate “Chesapeake.” 5. Chesapeake "Team Showcase" Each year the planning committee receives requests from the teams for space to put up a booth or table, to demonstrate a product or to give-away cool stuff. We are impressed by the creativity and initiative shown by the teams. However, with 60+ teams at Chesapeake, we have a shortage of space. This year, we are going to pilot a "Showcase" area. The first 20 teams who register will be assigned a one-hour time slot on Thursday March 13, between 9-7 pm, starting on the hour. The team will be allowed a standard 2' by 6' table at a site TBD (may be in the pits). Two teams at two tables will be featured in the Showcase at the same time. Teams will be responsible for staffing this table during their assigned hour. They may display a banner on the front of the table (need to bring own tape, etc.) They may give-away items that fit the guidelines listed here: http://www.usfirst.org/uploadedfiles...D_SiteInfo.pdf. They may demonstrate a product. They may conduct a training session. No selling of products or selling/giving out food is allowed. To register, send Jenny Beatty jbeattyfirst@gmail.com the team #, the team contact for the Showcase, with their email and a brief description of what your team would like to do during your 59 minutes. An agenda of the Showcase will be given to all the teams at the Chesapeake. This is a pilot project and we will rely on the cooperation of the teams participating to make it work. We will only be able to accommodate the first 20 teams who sign up. |
