Hey all Arizona FIRST teams, just wanted to remind everyone about the Duel in the Desert this Saturday @ Highland High School! I think you need to sign up if you haven’t yet, but Team 498 can’t wait to see you all there!
Team #39 would like to thank all the teams who attended the 8th Duel in the Desert. It was a great day. Thank you to all the teams who trusted us to lift their robots. See all of you in three weeks at the Arizona Regional.

Team 842 is most grateful to Highland High School’s hospitality and sharing a fantastic Arizona day with all of us.
The Duel in the Desert scrimmage is always a treat. At our school, we really do not get to test our robot on carpet, except for maybe a 10 foot strip, so the Highland experience is always our first shakedown and we always find failures and a few things to add to the never completed “todo” list.
And it’s great to see familair and a lot of new faces.
Thanks for a great start to the regionals.

Pictures! We want pictures! Unfortunately, our bot is not in competition readyness yet. 
I’ll get pictures our team took up tommorow, there aren’t alot (only like 8 or 10) but there’s still some.
Sorry I wasn’t able to make it Ken, my team managed to get there though. Too bad are robot isn’t really working.
Yea i took a lot of pic of our robot actually on the field working (kinda) and 2 stort videos. So for those of you that left before we got on the field i’ll load them later tonight.
All the pictures I have worth seeing are up in CD-Media now!

For those who were there; what 4 teams attended? I know that 842, 39, and 498 were there, but I do not know what number the other team in attendance was, and nobody from my team can seem to remember.
I believe team 1212 usually goes to the dual in the desert. It might be them instead of 1633.
I could be wrong but I blieve they were planing on going.
I am an alum from Seton and so I believe that is them.
There team name is holy hampsters, if that rings a bell.
