To All Teams and Volunteers that are attending the San Diego Regional!
We are helping to mentor the Brazilian rookie team FRC 3032. They are attending the SD Regional. They have a robot, they have plane tickets, but they need accommodations.
We are going to do a part of this by getting some extra space at our hotel.
But the problem is that, they are arriving on March 2nd and we won’t get there until March 4th. They need some combination of hotel rooms and homestays to supplement the help we provide in San Diego from March 2nd through 8th.
They are a relatively small group. I am trying to get the breakdown of attending adults, students, and their genders. Once I have this info, I will pass this information on to interested teams.
Thank you in advance for helping this rookie team in need!
P.S.
We can’t wait to make new friends in San Diego!
This sounds like a great plan. I would suggest in addition to contacting Dave Berggen to visit the Team San Diego Google Group and spread the word there.
I have an apartment nearby that could hold a few people in the living room, but I would have to clear it with my roommates.
I will start making contacts as soon as I know more about the composition and size of the group. In the meantime, if people would like to express a preliminary interest in volunteering, via PM or posting, that would be great.
Also if you want to make contacts through other means on behalf of this team and then get back to me that would also be helpful.
Here is the breakdown for the Brazilian Team, FRC 3032.
1 male adult
1 female adult
5 Male students
2 female students
Arriving on March 3rd
Leaving on March 8th
If anyone is interested in establishing a homestay or has extra hotel space please let me know. We will obviously contribute hotel space to this as well. But we can’t be there to greet or house them on March 3rd.
Look forward to hearing back from any San Diego Volunteers and/or Teams
Dave and I have already been in contact with the Regional Director and the team. We have several parents who are working on finding accommodations for the entire team for their stay in San Diego.
We did this last year with team 1998 from Michigan, so this shouldn’t be a problem for us.
That’s great! Thank you! I’ll contact you via PM if that is OK? We are really looking forward to the trip and to meeting your team.
See you in a few days.
I just wanted to express our appreciation for Jon Jack, Team 1538, The Holy Cows, thier parent organization, Bill Berggren, and Jim Beck for helping to find housing for the Brazilian Team 3032.
Your GP is showing!
Our team is truly looking forward to competing at the San Diego Regional and making some new friends along the way.
