Philly has come a gone (much like our sanity). After 3 days of chaos, we came in as the 15th seeded team (3rd highest ranked rookie team, and a major come back from a low of 52nd). Do to gas leaks and inclement weather, our scrimmage with the two Maryland teams has been called off (good luck to you guys). Florida, here we come!!!

We are a few days away from Philly, and ready to ride. Mrs. Gazda and Mr. Tripp are collecting the permission forms.
Our invasionary and scout forces leaves Wednesday at 7 PM from the back of the high school followed by the full armada leaving at 5:30 AM on Saturday. Our extended scouting mission will lend itself nicely to the proposed beachhead, with full ground and air superiority schedules for early Saturday morning. All ammunitions and other supply are ready and will follow shortly behind the early forces.

It shipped! The robot was actually completed over the weekend (and we even had a little time for practice), crated up earlier today, and put on the truck by 4:00pm! It is on it's way, and now it is time to start to prep for Philadelphia!
