2009 Palmetto Regional

[DonRotolo]

Team 1676 is proud to be attending Palmetto again. We had so much fun in 2006 that, even though it's a different venue, we've been just waiting for an opportunity to return. (Hint: It's the people.)

I see that our friends from Gravatai, Brazil, will be there - I'll need to improve my Portuguese for the end of March.

Maybe we'll even get to see Billfred!

So who else is attending??

HOLA!!! Spanish and Portueguese go hand in hand. I can communicate really well with someone who speaks portueguese by simply using spanish. .

Team 1261 is trying to attend. We are signed up and everything but there is a waiting list and unfortunately we are on that list. We sent a small crew last year and they bad a blast so this year we are definitely trying our 100% best to try and attend.

[Zflash]

1319 will be there. We have always enjoyed the event and the teams that attend. Does anyone know what the final number of allowed teams will be? I recall that it was somewhat crowded lat year. Can't wait to see everyone there and good luck to all in the 2009 season.

Hi Guys,

My team 1772 is from Gravatai, Brazil.
Next year will be the first time that we participate in Palmetto.
We only participated in the Houston Regional.
Sure will be an exciting regional. Will be a pleasure meet them.

Bye!

Even with the Capitals taking a Palmetto break (try Chesapeake, you'll like it!), I still found a way to make it to...that other school.

However, it is official (whenever our teacher punches it into TIMS): 1618 is making the three-hour drive up to that other school for the 2009 Palmetto Regional; we look forward to trying to overtake our last outing at Palmetto. It'll be great to see 1676 again, as well as our old partners in 801 and, I'm assuming, 1102. The addition of 1772 should also make for a good time; it'll be the first international team in the six-year history of the event, and the first team from beyond the Continental U.S. since now-defunct Puerto Ricans 780 made the trip (and the semifinals, with 433 and 393) in the inaugural event of 2004.

In short, I can't wait.

(PS: How 'bout them Gamecocks?)

343 will be there once again! we even get to sleep in our own beds . we are super-excited once again to visit the Palmetto regional.

[hipsterjr]

342 is expecting to go. It will take something big to keep us from seeing all our old friends. I'm still convinced that BillFred is LookingForward lol. See y'all there.



PS(1319 give us Mike Bryan back and no one will get hurt).

It looks like my team is attending Palmetto - I reckon I'll try to make the trek.

Is dancing allowed at that other school? I see that the Engineering display at the team social is in the Ballroom.

Otto will be back in Black ...

Is that a room filled with trackballs?

1249 is coming south again. We have enjoyed it the last few years and look forward to it again. 337 is on the waiting list but expected to join us this year after going to Hawaii last year. It will be their first year at Clemson after going to USC a couple of years before the move.

1293 will be there of course...

and we will be ready to play

It's great to have the diversity from so many states and countries attending. Which teams from the area will be attending the scrimmage at the Donaldson Career Center next Saturday? We'll be there, ready to play.

2815 will be there; 1618 might be there depending on some factors. (Such as, say, whether we have a robot ready to run.)
