>Hi Team
>It was great to come back last week after a week away and find so many 
>enthusiastic new members. Thursday we had a great kick-off meeting, with 
>several new adults interested in participating as well. So we're off to a 
>good start for the 06-07 CRUSH year.
>
>The main activity going on for the next week or so is final preparations 
>for Robolympics, which is coming up fast, on Saturday September 16. For the 
>benefit of you new members, this is an event we are hosting for the second 
>year that is basically an information and exhibition session to raise 
>interest in public support for robotics in Tucson, and also to stimulate 
>interest in creating new teams. Two or three teams will travel down from 
>Phoenix to participate, as well as some local Tucson teams. We should have 
>5+ teams total. The first part of the day is presentations to teach 
>attendees what FIRST is all about, roughly the same presentation I gave 
>last Thursday evening, followed by a couple of break-out sessions. The 
>second part of the day is an exhibition competion, where the teams compete 
>for trophies we're building in the robot shop.
>
>Our regular meeting schedule continues to be 3-5 Tuesday and Thursday, and 
>9-3 on ODD Saturdays (1st Saturday, 3rd Saturday, 5th when the month has 
>one). We also meet on extra Saturdays when there is need. This week is one 
>such, since we have much left to do to be ready for Robolympics. So please 
>plan to join us this weekend
>Saturday September 9, 9 am to 3 pm
>Lunch is always provided at Saturday meetings!
>
>The other activity in the queue is to get the student organization worked 
>out, officers, subteams, and such, and then plan our fall activities and 
>projects. We will begin discussing this at the Saturday meeting, but won't 
>focus on it very much until after Robolympics.
>
>I'm glad to have you all on the team.
