Re: Where Are You Volunteering?

Definite: Queing @ FLR in week 2
Queing @ Championship



Tentative:Queing @ DC in week 1
Queing @ Florida in week 3
Queing @either Phili, Chesepeake or Waterloo depending on what my team does in week 4.
Queing @ GTR in week 5
Queing @ Michigan Championship in week 6
it all depends on my vacation scheduling (I work in a union so vacation is given out based on seniority and I am the lowest trucker by decades in my area)

My off season schedule won't be known until the off season is actually scheduled. Rah Cha Cha Ruckus is a definite and so is IRI. Queing @ both

Re: Where Are You Volunteering?

Various FTC/FLL events here in NJ and the NYC area- you name it, I'm probably there. With a few exceptions, of course.

My FRC season:

Week 1: NJ Regional w/team 1923 (Definite)
Week 2: Volunteering at Boston (Definite)
Week 3: Senior trip to Disney. Sorry, no FIRST this weekend. (Definite)
Week 4: Philly? (1923 is on the waitlist, so I may not be volunteering)
Week 5: Volunteering at Long Island?
Week 6: I'd like to volunteer at the Michigan event. Just to see what it's like.

Championship: Competing with 1923.

Re: Where Are You Volunteering?

I will be at Los Angeles and Phoenix as a volunteer. I will probably also be attending Las Vegas, I'm not sure about volunteering there though

Re: Where Are You Volunteering?

Our team is hosting an FLL regional in our gym, and I'm a ref. We volunteered at the practice match this year and last year. I love working with FLL, it's great to see kids so young developing their interests.

You should be getting an e-mail sometime soon from the volunteer coordinator for those events. I know they are first recruiting what FIRST considers to be "key volunteer" positions (lead inspectors, referees, scoring system operators, etc.), and then they work on sorting out who does what's left...

Re: Where Are You Volunteering?

I'm volunteering for the FRC Hawai'i Regional, as well as volunteering with the Hawai'i Regional Planning Committee. So if I can get dragged in, I probably will for any events on O'ahu including the Pan Pacific VEX Competition this weekend. I might do a mainland event, however that is still up in the air.
