Registration
You need Consent and Release Form filled out for each student and adult team member in
attendance. You will need all of them to register in the morning when you arrive (which is
required to pick up your KoP). Also remember that members younger than 18 must have their
parent or legal guardian sign the form as well. There will be volunteers there to help you with the
registration process. At registration you will receive the very important Kit of Parts (KoP) receipt
paper. Please treat this as gold. It will be required for the KoP (Kit of Parts). No receipt. No KoP.
No exceptions.

Where should I park?
All attendees should park in the east parking lot of Evergreen High School. We will have signs
for "Robotics Kickoff" directing attendees from those areas to the kickoff location.

What should I bring with me?
It is advised that you bring a hand truck or other rolling cart to transport your kit boxes to your
car. Kit disbursement will happen in the commons and you will be able to load gear easily from
the location. You may want to bring a camera, tape measure, and means to take notes on any
field elements that are available to you on site.

What is the kit pickup procedure?
Kits will be available for any teams who have indicated such in TIMS. Teams may begin arriving
as early as 6:00AM, although the live broadcast does not begin until approximately 7:30AM.
Upon arrival, a team MENTOR must sign-in and receive your Kit of Parts (KoP) receipt. This
piece of paper is what you will need to receive all elements of your KoP. At the conclusion of
the live broadcast, team members will proceed to the commons to pick up their kits. Each
station will have a different item and teams must provide their KoP receipt to that station
volunteer who will check off that they received their item. Since the loading area is limited, only
the adult mentor with the KoP receipt and two team members will be allowed in the loading
area. Maps will be available for the pick-up and load-out areas. After all items are
Hosted by Teams 2471 * 2517 * 1510
received, a MENTOR will be required to turn in the receipt and sign off that all items have been
provided to them. If your team is picking-up a KoP for another team, you must have clearance
from FIRST. The two teams must coordinate this in advance with FIRST. If you have not done
this, please get it done now. This is done by contacting FIRST and obtaining a letter of
permission. No letter. No KoP. No exceptions. There will be designated tables in the commons
for each team for inventorying of parts and initial brainstorming.

Will there be any workshops?
The Kickoff will host a series of workshops for all interested teams after kick-off formalities on
January 5, 2013. Rookie teams are especially encouraged to stay and attend the "quick build"
workshops that are scheduled. For detailed workshop descriptions and schedule please see the
accompany pages included. Rookie teams should make arrangements for snacks or lunch for
their teams. Concessions will be available on site. For workshop schedule questions please
contact Bud Hayes: mail@thehayesplace.com. We will also have a nearly complete field set up
for teams to evaluate and get a feel of the scope of this years competition.

We will have signs for "Robotics Kickoff" directing attendees from those areas to the kickoff location. What should I bring with me? It is advised that you bring a hand truck or other rolling cart to transport your kit boxes to your car. Kit disbursement will happen in the commons and you will be able to load gear easily from the location. You may want to bring a camera, tape measure, and means to take notes on any field elements that are available to you on site. What is the kit pickup procedure? Kits will be available for any teams who have indicated such in TIMS. Teams may begin arriving as early as 6:00AM, although the live broadcast does not begin until approximately 7:30AM. Upon arrival, a team MENTOR must sign-in and receive your Kit of Parts (KoP) receipt. This piece of paper is what you will need to receive all elements of your KoP. At the conclusion of the live broadcast, team members will proceed to the commons to pick up their kits. Each station will have a different item and teams must provide their KoP receipt to that station volunteer who will check off that they received their item. Since the loading area is limited, only the adult mentor with the KoP receipt and two team members will be allowed in the loading area. Maps will be available for the pick-up and load-out areas. After all items are

If your team is picking-up a KoP for another team, you must have clearance from FIRST. The two teams must coordinate this in advance with FIRST. If you have not done this, please get it done now. This is done by contacting FIRST and obtaining a letter of permission. No letter. No KoP. No exceptions. There will be designated tables in the commons for each team for inventorying of parts and initial brainstorming. Will there be any workshops? The Kickoff will host a series of workshops for all interested teams after kick-off formalities on January 5, 2013. Rookie teams are especially encouraged to stay and attend the "quick build" workshops that are scheduled. For detailed workshop descriptions and schedule please see the accompany pages included. Rookie teams should make arrangements for snacks or lunch for their teams. Concessions will be available on site. For workshop schedule questions please contact Bud Hayes: mail@thehayesplace.com. We will also have a nearly complete field set up for teams to evaluate and get a feel of the scope of this years competition.
