2009 PARC XII! Pennsylvania Robot Challenge

1218 and 1640 have officially registered for PARC!

22 team slots open, sign up now before they’re gone.:smiley:

1391 registered last night, but is not showing up on the team list. Just wanted to check and make sure it went through!

Looks like PARC is shaping up to have a really solid competition this year.

I just haven’t checked email yet. (I manually have to add the team to the team list) :smiley:

Glad to hear your coming, PARC is a wonderfully fun and exciting event.:smiley:

Your team is now on the team list.

Only 21 slots left.:smiley:

Alright I’ve fallen behind the 8 ball here…341, 423, 1143 & 1391 have all officially registered for PARC!

Team 2053 the Tigertronics have officially registered for PARC! Boy are the announcers going to have fun :wink: .

YAY Tigertronics! Welcome to our TIGER HOUSE! :slight_smile:

They’re a clever bunch. Check out Fingerlakes quarterfinal 1-1 to see how they and a pair of slick rookies baited and trapped a very good 188 bot and changed a defeat to a stunning victory in the last 20 seconds. They are to be feared.

I’m glad to hear that we impressed some people up at Fingerlakes. I wish I could say the same about our last regional in Annapolis.

I’m going to talk to my advisors in the coming weeks to see if we can make it to PARC as a Team. I’d love to get the bot on the Regolith one more time after Atlanta and Also I need to train next year’s Driver.

If my team can’t make it, I might make a solo adventure out of it. :smiley:

Sounds great! Hopefully you guys can make it.

You’ll only have to go once. After that it will become an event that you will look forward to attending every year. Guaranteed fun!

I finally got to watch that match, and I must say, very good strategy from the Tigertronics. This will be the first time I see them in action. Most likely I’ll be reffing PARC so I’ll be getting close and personal.:wink:

:smiley: 45 days till PARC XII :smiley:

Team 1391 will not be attending PARC. Come on teams help us fill up this event!

To keep everyone informed…The chicken BBQ will be run by the TAHS business club. We’re still waiting on prices. We’re not settled on how many holes the mini golf course will be. It all depends on if the CAD class students all finish their project. Also new for us will be customizable PARC shirts. We are still trying to collect colleges and businesses for our technology fair. Also the school planetarium will be open with presentation times throughout the day. There’s tons of work going into PARC this year. We’re hoping to get enough teams to make it worth while. Hope to see you all at the PARC!

A couple of things have caused me to have to change my plans and back out of my obligation to work PARC.
One is it’s mothers day weekend and mom lives in Boston. So I will be going to Battlecry instead (and bringing mom gifts from Wegmans) and because I am staying at mom’s I won’t have to pay for a hotel room which is suddenly very important after a very unfortunate incident last weekend has incurred a large bill for me from Canada with my internet use.
I apologize wholehearted for this.

That’s cool Ed we completely understand. You do alot for the FIRST community and I imagine it can be a big drain. Plus ya gotta visit mom on Mother’s day! :smiley:

I’m very excited about PARC this year! It’s going to be one of my last competitions ever. Hopefully I’ll be able to come back after I graduate and volunteer!!
