General Info

This is an Elementary School ONLY in-person State Championship event! 

 

We cannot run events without dozens of volunteers.  We respectfully request that every team attending the event provides AT LEAST one full-day volunteer to ensure the event runs smoothly.  Find out more on the ‘Volunteer’ tab.

 

Please be sure to read all of the event information contained on the Robot Events page.

 

All teams participating in this event are expected to follow the RECF Student Centered Policy (https://vrc-kb.recf.org/hc/en-us/articles/9654578622487-Student-Centered-Policy) - NO adult designed, built, or programmed robots.  Teams found to be violating the student-centered policy will be submitted to RECF for review and the outcome of that review may impact ability to participate in future events.

 

There will be a snack bar with breakfast and lunch items, drinks and snacks.  We will send out whole pizza pre-order information as we get closer to the event.

 

We ask for you to make payment at the time of the event registration.  Teams not paid one week prior to the event will be moved to the wait list and risk not having a spot in the competition.

 

Teams canceling prior to the registration closure date and notifying the event partner via email by the registration closure date will receive a full refund.  

Registered teams that are a no-show for the event are still responsible for payment of event registration fees, and will be expected to pay event entry fees at the time of registration for any future events. No refunds are available for no-show teams.
