Hey everyone, just wanted to see who will be attending the Sacramento regional this week.
Perhaps we could have a CD get together at lunch or something?
Since there is no team party, maybe a bunch of people could get together and just go hangout somewhere Friday or Saturday.
Hope to see you all Thursday!
Cory
Bill, Dima, Mark, and I are going up. Some on Wednesday, some on Thursday.
None of us will be competing, but we’re going to be volunteering, as usual. 
some of us from 254 are going up on wednesday, the rest on thurs. we’re staying at the radisson…where are the rest of ya gonna be?
If all goes well, that’s where we’ll be staying, too. 
Team 1097 will be there…if you have any questions about the area just ask.
Our team plans to have its half practice field available at the venue, but we did not build the small stairs leading up to the stationary goal platform yet. We plan to start construction of these tomorrow, but just in case, we would really appreciate it if any nearby team could bring theirs too.
You forgot to mention I going to be volunteering too. Who do you think I am, some outsider? 
We are going to be stayin at the Radisson too, I believe (still waiting to hear confirmation in e-mail).
Bill Gold and I will be helping with setup on Wendesday. Hope to see everyone there!
Haha. smacks forehead I thought it was a given that you’d be there. I mean, you’re Ken! 
Wow… Sac regional this weekend already? Man… … seemed so… long ago that Sac had it’s FIRST regional. thinks of fond memories But I shall be there only on Saturday because, alas, I have icky icky finals on Thursday and Friday :mad: But yes… Good luck to all teams!!
Team 599 - RoboDox - will be there.
We are staying at the Best Western EXPO.
As for volunteers, we will have about 10 team members at any given time working in cueing, field reset, crowd control, etc. The remainder of the team get to get “The Dentist” working!
I’m going to be annoucing…
We will be running our “Robot First-Aid Station” like last year, and I know we are looking for some sort of “Team Gathering” event that we can help with for Friday evening.
It will be a blast!
See everyone on Thursday AM.

Coach, 599
For all thoes teams staying at the RADISSON, my team is bringing 2 XBOXES and will be having HALO lan battles in-between rooms, 4players per room, let the games begin. 
P.S. if any other teem staying at the RADISSON, is willing to bring alother XBOX and HALO that would be great! :yikes:
My team is heading up there thursday morning
Team 1425 will be at the Sacremento Regional, we are leaving tomorrow!
We are one of three Oregon teams that are signed up to attend this weekend.
one question, does anyone know if it will be one of the webcasted events?
No, it will not be webcasted.
Sorry 
Cory
In which case I will be calling Jim at random intervals for interesting updates.

Hey James,
I know that we will be staying at the Radisson. I might be able to bring my XBOX and Halo, but i might need other people to bring extra controllers. So, if you could bring some extra controllers, that would be great. LET THE LAN GAMES BEGIN!
I’ll put in a controller, and possibly a second (if i can find it) :rolleyes:
do any sactown natives know of anything else fun to do in the area?
well, Cal Expo is located directly across from 2 movie theaters, a mall and other stereotypical complexes. There is an amusement center place in the Cal Expo complex, (they’ve been bought and sold dozens of times so idk what the name is currently) and i dont know if it’ll be open. Water World won’t be open which is also at Cal Expo w/ go karts, laser tag, miniture golf, arcade etc. If we are lucky a gun/doll show might be going on somewhere in Cal Expo at the same time… yay :rolleyes:
Most things to do in Sac aren’t really in Sacramento… theres Golfland Sunsplash in roseville. There is multiple video game stores near where you guys seem to be staying/the mall. Theres a carousel in the mall. Doesn’t seem like any major close/cheap attractions will be functioning though. Country Club Lanes (bowling) and Lazer tag at laser force and country club lanes both within about 10 - 15 minutes of Cal Expo. Leatherbys (home made style ice creamery which is open usually till about midnight is down the street from the mall/cal expo. We kinda just make our own fun.
ok, cool. does anyone have anything planned for teams to get together somewhere? or are we just gonna rove the mall like last year and hope that we run into some other teams?
Anyone (or team) want to put arrange some team / FIRSTer get together on Thursday or Friday night? After the past few Cal Games’ and SVRs we’ve taken 50+ FIRSTers to the local mall’s food court. I think it’d be cool to do the same or somethign similar up there. I would help organize something, but I’ve only been to Sacramento once before (last year’s regional). If someone wants to put this together we can spread the word Thursday morning at the event. Any takers for this?

Team 1151, The Hitchhikers will be there.
