Meeting #18 - 3/7/2010

Two meetings in a row with everyone present!  The team did more rehearsing today, including two rehearsals where they moved all of their set pieces and props in.  On one of these rehearsals they actually came in under the required amount of time, I happened to record this one there is a link below.



The team also did two instant challenges, one task based where they had to build a bridge and get the two bases as far apart as possible, there is one new picture in the photo album showing the finished product.  In another challenge they had to make up three different uses for a single object and incorporate them into a skit of some kind.

We have one final meeting next Sunday (3/14/2010) at 3pm.  The Saturday after that (3/20/2010) is the regional tournament at Ashwaubenon High School.  Team 14 will have their instant challenge at 11:00am and their main challenge at 1:30pm.  My plan for the weekend is currently...

Friday afternoon/evening
Stop at LeClair's house to load up all of the teams stuff, probably around 6pm if this works for the LeClair's.  I'm hoping I can get all of the teams stuff into my van with the seats removed.

Saturday Morning
I'll be arriving early at tournament so all of the stuff will already be there bright and early.  I would like the team to meet at 10:00am near the registration area.  We will then make a quick stop to hopefully watch St. Bernard Team 12 present their solution to Challenge A, then we'll move to the Instant Challenge area and do our Instant Challenge at 11:00am.  After the Instant Challenge we will visit the room our main challenge will be in to get a feel for the room.  If anyone wants to grab a quick bit to eat we will probably do that next and then start moving our stuff to the staging area for our 1:30pm presentation.
