The Mindstorm Masters invite you to a pre-regionals First Lego League Tournament open to the first 40 teams that sign up.

• When: November 15, 2009 from 10:00am to 4:30pm
• Where: The south end of Crossroads Bellevue (near Old Navy)
• Why: To practice, compete, share and enjoy Roboting!!!

Details:

• Each team will get 3 rounds on the competition tables. (A great lesson in humility!!! )
• Each team will also have a simulated “presentation session” with judges. You are NOT expected to prepare a formal presentation. Rather, judges will ask your team questions about their project, design and teamwork, giving the team practice communicating in a formal tournament-like environment. These sessions will be videoed and burnt to DVD for each team to review. They will NOT be scored for this portion of the event.
• We will have a few practice tables available for first-come, first served practice time throughout the day.
• Finally, we will have FLL veteran youth mentors on hand to work with teams on their ideas and challenges!
• Registration is $10.00 (pay in cash the morning of) Registration does NOT include lunch, so bring your own or some money to enjoy the food court!
• All told, a great time will be had by all! We only have room for 40 teams, register NOW!!!

More information:

• Outlets for charging laptops are non-existent in the main area of Crossroads. We will have a designated area for you to plug-in and charge laptops but, you will not be able to use them while they are charging.
• There will be no secured pits… what you bring you will have to to watch over. (During lunch or downtime, we suggest locking bots and computers in your cars.)
