Pascack Pandemonium 2008- Post Season Event

[synth3tk]

But chances are it'll be two thumbs up, provided it doesn't conflict. I think most teams are always up for some off-season action.

"Hmm. Your ideas are intriguing to me and I wish to subscribe to your newsletter."

(1089 would love to add it to their list of things to do as long as it woudn't conflict with something we've already established)

I was just wondering what you guys are planning to do at the event. Anything special?

I can't wait, hopefully our rookie drivers will be able to handle the robot as well as our drivers did during the season. Otherwise I doubt we'll be at the same level we were during the season. =/

Let me know how I can help with the event Lizzie.

Well, I can say there will be an awesome raffle, and some nice give-aways for attending teams. It's summer now, so planning takes a back seat to tanning, but I know everything facility- and field-wise appears to be all set. I think the committee realizes that it shouldn't be 'just another off-season match' so creativity is in use. I, personally, want to see some seminars on things like robot design, manipulators, arm joints, and, especially, the new controller & programming system.

That would be great, I'll try to get some more rookie teams in on this.

There's a good chance there will be an information session on the new NI control system ... more info to come!

[Graham Donaldson]

Panda-monium is now up to 13 registered teams!

C'mon, everyone, the first tri-state area preseason competition is just over a month away! Sign up now!

Check the CD-Events page for more information.

P.S. We'd love to have more volunteers, too!

I am told there will be a Lego Mindstorms NXT kit given away to someone attending with their team. Remember that the NXT uses a version of LabView for programming....which would be a real learning advantage to any team using LabView for their 2009 robot.

Now I hear other door prizes will be offered to students attending with their registered team.

I'm thinking we need to start a new thread for all this, get it said right at the start.
