FTC Kickoff!

As you may or may not know, the kickoff for FTC is happening this Saturday, September 10th in Fremont!

More info about the kickoff here!

Mr. Chew was able to log on to TIMS for FTC, so even if we aren't able to recover our ART TIMS account in time for kickoff, we'll hopefully be able to still register with our 4345 number.
(Although if that doesn't work, creating a new FTC team wouldn't be terrible because we can have ART "sponsor" it and get discounts on both ends. But anyhow.)

We should figure out the logistics of rides for who's going.

Judging from the emails.

People who are going: Anna, Alvin (very likely), Navi, Sophia, Crystal (most likely), Clayton (potentially)

People who can provide rides: Alvin (6)

oh hey if I did the math right that's perfect
Shall we meet at Aragon or a convenient location? It takes about half an hour to get there, so how does 8AM sound?

So I emailed Mark Edelman--> hadnt realized he's an official person at least i think that he is

This is his response:

The dates for qualifying tournaments have not been published yet.
In general, there will be a couple of events in Nov, a couple in Dec,
a couple in Jan, and possibly one at the beginning of Feb.

We are planning the NorCal FTC Championship to be after FRC robot ship,
but before the regionals in this area

We are anticipating that FRC connected teams will likely compete in
early qualifiers, and mothball their robots during FRC build, coming
back out if they advance to the Championship.

Oh who can provide a ride back (unless Alvin's parents are staying for the kickoff)?

As I have gotten my car (Woot) I might end up going there. But, unfortunately, can't give rides back =(

My dad should be able to provide rides there I believe...and yes pickup from Aragon sounds good, 8am?
