Welcome to Game Day 2012! Here are some key items for you to remember:
- While doors open to the public at 11:30, teams may come in earlier to finish their exhibit booths.
- We will allow up to 10 minutes on the field for teams who may need to do some last minute fine tuning. This will take place between 9 am and 10 am.
- The main teacher/coach should sign in upon arrival and pick up name badges and Tshirts for your team. We are providing each team member (as stated on your roster) a free Tshirt compliments of our sponsors. Additional shirts may be purchased for $10 each at the registration table.
- A mandatory teacher meeting will take place at 12:00 noon. The main teacher for each team should attend.
- Two students must take the robot to the pit for compliance check. The scheduled time is 11:30 - 12:30, but we may start compliance checks early if your team is ready. Please note that once the compliance check is completed, the robot must stay in the pit.
- A mandatory driver's meeting will take place at 1:00 pm. Anyone who might be in the pit anytime during the day must attend. This includes drivers, spotters, mentors, and teachers.
- At 1:20 pm, the pit and exhibit area will be cleared. All teams should report to the exit door nearest the snack bar.
- At 1:30 pm, the opening ceremony will begin. All teams must participate.
- From that point forward, pit passes are required for entry to the arena.
- Only the northeast entrance to the arena will be accessible. You must have a pit pass for entrance.
- It is about the kids.
- It is about learning.
- It is NOT about winning at any cost.
- No whining.
- Oh, and READ THE RULES!
Let's have a great game day!
