Can't wait! Suffield Shakedown is always an awesome pre-season event. Can't wait to see everyone there!

Looking forward to the event this year, its an excellent place to shake down the robot, see how the game is played, and get our drivers some "experience behind the glass"

Thanks to the Aces High mentors and students who have kept this event going for 10 years strong!

BUZZ 175 found out during Holiday Party at E Fermi HS right after the post and registered that night.

As can be seen, the waitlist has been expanded quite a bit, and, as we have always reserved spots for rookies, a few more rookie teams have been added to the event.

1 month and 1 week to Shakedown!

[KathieK]

There will not be a NEMO meeting (unless someone would like to facilitate it) at the Suffield Shakedown this year.

[AcesJames]

Less than one week to go until Suffield Shakedown!

Please note, there WILL now be a NEMO at the scrimmage.

Also, for any teams who, for whatever reason, are registered to attend, but cannot now attend, please make sure to let us know so we can filter through the waitlist. We would hate to end up having open spots because a team couldn't make it but didn't alert us!

Thanks!
