a Boston Invitational... I WANT YOUR INPUT!!!

[Erin Rapacki]

I was zoning out during physics the other day and I had an idea... since then I've spoken with a few of the "higher ups" and my idea seems very do-able, this is it:

A ROBOTICS INVITATIONAL IN BOSTON THAT WILL BE AS EXCITING AS ANY REGIONAL! (this will be no shin-dig in a gym, I promise you)

But I want your input...

- would your team be interested? (any team could easily make a weekend out of it, I'm a girl from a mid-suburban town who found out how much living in Boston ROCKS!)
- what time of the year would YOU perfer? (I'm thinking late september-early october, this way it wouldn't conflict with other invitationals and it would be a good introduction to FIRST to new team members)
- any ideas or advice? I'm only 18 yrs old so I will be soliciting a lot of help
- if you have any really cool suggestions, let me know... I want this to be YOUR event!

The event would be held at Northeastern University, a few blocks away from the Prudential Center so it's right in the city. Keep in mind, I've only conceived this idea 3 days ago so absolutely nothing has been done yet... nothing is official.

Right now I'm just spreading the idea around.

PLEASE POST!!!
