2011 Alamo - Inaugural Event

[MattC9]

Quick historical note Texas came form the Caddo Indian word teysha witch means friend. Also on another note I have also herd in addition to 148, 1477, 16, 245 and 1429. 2158 ausTIN CANs and 2468 Westlake robotics( also known as team appreciate) will be coming down from Austin to compete. It looks like this will be a great regional. Also hopefully 2587 will come down to compete!

3103 is really excited, this is our first year competing out of town and Alamo gave us the perfect opportunity!

We always like to give a big Texas welcome to all the teams who come in from out of state!

This also includes the Adambots from Michigan, and rookie teams Campus San Luis from Michigan, and the Jaguars from Arkansas.

Oh yea, there is also this HOF team from Mountain Home Arkansas. Welcome back Bomb Squad!

I am so looking forward to coming to San Antonio to help out. The wife and I are flying in from California to help with judging. Haven't been to San Antonio since Air Force basic training, I think a robot competition is going to be much more fun

San Antonio is shaping up to be a great first year event !

This intensity will really start to build when 16, 118 and 148 release their robot videos!

In the meantime, the DiscoBots will keep you in suspense with our testing videos !

Scoring our first tube !

I always look forward to teaser videos as a preview of what to see at events.

Word is that the tandem that is AndyMark will be at the Alamo event at Robot Inspectors. The local planning committee is very grateful to these and other veteran FRC folks who are coming down to help make this event a smoothly run and successful event.

Glad to have both you and your wife from the Golden State visit our town and help develop the local pool of FRC judges. Should I put out a call to Lackland AFB to see if they can get an instructor out to the event for old times sake

Robots get bagged today for San Antonio.

Since this is everyone's first event of the season lets make scouting a bit easier. I would love to see pictures or even better videos of every robot that is going to be at the inaugural Alamo Regional.

To start it off, if you haven't seen it yet, here is the DiscoSlide from 2587.

We should have an updated video from our final driver practice uploaded some time soon.

Is anyone planning to webcast this event?

[AllenGregoryIV]

I don't know the details but I believe Team 2468 is planning to webcast Alamo.

[HighLife]

OK, I won't be in Texas next weekend, but would love to watch it.

As of right now there is no one listed as webcasting this event:

Safe travels to San Antonio! The weather is beautiful and will, hopefully, stay this way.

According to Andrew's post here, there is going to be a webcast.
