We've rebuilt and tested our robot, which is now named L1MB0.  We went to a scrimmage in Seattle with 6 other teams who will be at the World Championship.
We've made a new team banner.
Everything is packed, and now, we're off to St. Louis!
Oh, wait, they've just closed the St. Louis airport! The good news is that it's suppose to open the day before we leave.

Many FIRST events have live broadcasts over the internet.  You should be able to follow the action on the Live FIRST broadcast by NASA, on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday.  Any times you see posted or hear announced will be for St. Louis time zone.  If you are on the west coast, St. Louis is 2 hours earlier.

In past years, there have been different windows, one for each of the fields.
