Team 341 announces: Team in a Box

[OZ_341]

The "Team in a Box" Project was created in April 2004 in an effort to help rookie teams or experienced teams that mentor others. This DVD will help guide teams through the different phases of FIRST. In-depth explanations and advice provide the main focus for this project.

In addition to the DVD, a secondary CD provides a resource center for new teams. As this project develops, we are trying to seek out the experts for interviews. If a team or mentor is known for a particular strength we want to highlight them in our video.

Although this is a work in progress, we hope this DVD and CD will lend a helpful hand to emerging teams and their mentors.

You can order a copy through our website
( http://www.team341.com/tiab.html ) or find us in Atlanta.

In Atlanta we are also seeking expert teams and mentors to be a part of our videos. We do not want to be the only voices in this video. Over time, we want to build a comprehensive library of everything that a team needs to get started.

Reply to this thread if you would like to contribute to this effort or to the website if you would like a sample copy.

Thanks!

Team 341

P.S.
I have also attached an Image of the cover and disc art.

Team in a box??? Sounds like 316's solution to their funding problem for Atlanta. Al - Just in case the mentors don't make it to Atlanta could you drop some Tastycakes and Mountain Dew in the air holes in SAM's shipping crate!!!!!!!!!!!!

You guys better be in Atlanta!!! 316 deserves to be there. Let us know if we can help somehow!!

Oops our thread is getting off topic!!

Best of luck!!

yeah, it would be nice to know if we could get a copy over here.

[Rich Kressly]

I'll go out on a limb here and say go ahead and fill out the online request at the url provided and explain your situation in the team story field. I'm sure 341 will work with any team, regardless of location.

Thanks 341 for this awesome resource. I have a copy and it is great stuff.

[BandChick]

It sounds really great, and I've already requested one for 1089....seeing as we're going to be mentoring our own rookie team next year

Thanks in advance! It sure does look great!

Greetings from Team 341! If you will be attending the Championship Event, you can pick up one of a limited number of Team in a Box packages at our display in the Congress Center outside of the pit area. If this is not convenient for you, please be patient as we make our larger run this summer! Thank you for your interest, and if you have any other questions about this package please consult this email address, team341@gmail.com.

Good luck to all teams competing at the Championship Event!

Do we need to tell you if we're picking one up there, or will there just be a bunch...?

Well I'll be by to get one either way. I'm really curious to see what you guys have.

Well, we will have a list of people that have formally sent in requests through our websites, so we will definitely have enough of them. We will have a few packages on display and we will have a limited number of packages for those interested that have not signed up already. (Only one per team) Also, this is our first run of this project and we are looking to have one copy shipped to EVERY FIRST team by next season, so eventually everyone WILL have a Team in a Box!
