It was awesome.

I think that actually happened 2 years in a row. 2002 & 2003 if I'm not mistaken?
It's rare, & we kind of were looking forward to it happening again the nest year, but alas, it was not to be.
Oh wells.

Something you can do to make up some time in the first couple of weeks during a missed night is to have an online meetng, or teleconference, or just meet "unofficially" somewhere other than your school. There is nothing wrong with meeting with friends after school at someone's house.
Keep safety in mind though, & if it's a blizzard or frigid cold out, use common sense & your best judgement.
Building a robot is not more important than risking your life or anyone elses to get to a meeting.
The robot may be lonely for a night without you, but it will wait.
