This year Robo-Prom will be held at the Omni Hotel in the CNN Center from 7:00pm-11:00pm on **Thursday, April 16th. **
We will be located in the Dogwood AB room located on the M1 Level of the Hotel in the North Tower.
Tickets will cost $12 pre-sale, and $16 at the door.
If you would like to pre-order please email [email protected] and let me know how many people you have coming, and your team number. You can then pick up your wristbands and pay at our pit on Thursday (we’re bright orange and we have a backdrop of the Emerald City from The Wizard of Oz in our pit). If you pre-order you can also just pay and pick up your wristbands at the door for the pre-order price, but we suggest picking them up at our pit to avoid a long entrance line at the event.
The cost of your ticket covers the rental of the event space, DJ, water, and punch.
We will also be having a contest for Prom King and Prom Queen! Last year our winners were wearing outfits made out of track balls! You can wear a creative outfit, have the best dance moves, or do just about anything else that stands out in order to win. We have no guidelines to winning this award!
Dress is semi-formal (cocktail dresses for girls, slacks and collared shirts for boys).
(sorry I made a new thread, apparently you can’t edit your original post after a certain amount of time. . :rolleyes:)
Expect 10-15 super-excited Dawgma people to show up…I will email you with an official number. If we are pre-ordering tickets do you need the money in advance or do we give that to you guys in ATL? :yikes: :yikes:
It’s easiest if you just give it to us in Atlanta. Give us an email with the official count, and your team number, then when we see you in atlanta tell us your team number, and we’ll check that you pre-ordered, then exchange wristbands/money.
We will have both of our advisors and two of our mentors there, and some other teams are bringing chaperones. So while we don’t need any chaperones, if you have an adult that would like to come they should feel free to come free of charge!
Team 176 should be going. Many of our members who attended last year are excited about showing up again.
We weren’t sure if we wanted to travel all the way to the Marriot, seeing as we moved to the Omni this year, but then I read the post tonight and I’m like, “Yes!!!”
YAY! Thank you guys so much for organizing all of this! I’ll try to get you our final numbers of people that are going as soon as possible! I’m totally up for this and really excited thanks again!
YAY! I’m super excited for Robo-Prom! Team 1675 will e-mail you with the approximate number asap. Thank’s for planning all of this! It’s a lot of fun, and gives us something to do Thursday night
Team 341 will most likely be attending. Our student leaders are very excited about the idea of going. We are going to survey the full team and get back to you.
Thanks for making this opportunity.
I forwarded the Robo-Prom announcement to our team as soon as I had approval from the teachers to offer them the chance to attend. Unfortunately, with Kokomo schools’ Spring Break falling this week (with a coincidental local Delphi shutdown), many of the TechnoKats are out of town and I won’t be able to get a good count of interested students until April 13.
When is the latest we can e-mail you with numbers of people coming? It’s hard to find out while on Spring Break (as Alan said), and it would be nice to know if pre-order means next Wednesday, or sometime this week.
