( copied from ryans post in Florida Invitational )
I just came back from a robotics meeting, the subject of the day was of course this Invitational.
This what was accomplished:
- date
- Price
- NAME (and it was picked from one of the ones you sent in)
We have secured the place to hold this competiton and the fields so we decided on announcing the date. The date will be June 13,14 2003. The 13th will be set up date of the field. 14th will be a full day of competiton. Now this brings me to my next point. We need volunteers anyway we can get them. If you have friends that would like to volunteer any of those days or you would just pm me with your team number, name, evening phone number and you will be added to the volunteer list.
Next order of business is the price. The price for shipping this field down to us is reallly really expensive. There are twelve crates that weigh a total of 3 tons. When talking to are mentors they told me and dan to tell you guys between 300-600 dollars for registration fees. Me and Dan did some math on the phone and we figured that if we have 16 teams commit we can have the price down to 300 or 350. Tell your teams the price
Keep in mind the more teams that sign up the less it costs, we aren’t trying to get money just break about even… as is we are taking a loss and we are an underfunded team lol so any help is appreciated
WE have set up a diagram of the field in are gym and the max number of teams we will be able to hold is 16. This is with reducing the size of the pit space. The size of each teams pit will be 8 feet long by 8 1/2 inches.
WE HAVE COME UP WITH A NAME ARE YOU GUYS READY FOR THIS?
THE NAME IS…
