For those of you who don’t know, the F.C.S.E. is an activity that we started in 2004 by Team 237 as a fun event for right before Kickoff of the Robotics Season or whenever we feel like going to the mountains now.
We try & get as many people from our team and other local teams to go to Local area resorts to Snowboard or Ski (your choice).
This is not a fundraiser, but rather just a day that people can get together and have some fun on the slopes.

Put your votes in now for a date!

darn. I thought you meant the other kind of date :smiley:

Any day would be great, I would really like to attend this one, especially considering Mt. Southington is literally 35 seconds from my house hah. I’m going to see if we can get a few more from Team 195 Cyber Knights to come, but for me any day at any location :slight_smile:

If you do it that weekend in March…I could ottally go and make a fool out of myself with my lack of Skiing history.

6

Aw man…I’m on the other side of the country. >_<

7

Ok folks, last call!

Pick a date for **this weekend! **(24th,25th)

Saturday or Sunday?
And where?

CHOOSE OR LOSE!!! lol :stuck_out_tongue:

9

I think we should go on saturday at sundown

10

Saturday at Sundown

11

Whatever we do on Saturday I will be late for. Car shopping takes priorities over Snowboarding this weekend unfortunately since it’s my last free weekend in quite a while. (And shaking this cold would be nice too. I need a vacation somewhere warm. lol) How warm is Jersey going to be next weekend? :stuck_out_tongue:

Anyways, if everyone is in agreement to get together at Sundown, just let me know when you will all be there until, and I’ll try to make it.

Looks like Saturday at Sundown it is though unless anyone has any major issues with that.

I’ll post in the other places this is posted today during my lunch time & when I get home tonight (darn internet restrictions to some sites lol ) to let everyone know.
