General Info

The 'Early Bird Special' VEX Tournament is hosted by North Salem Robotics club and it is an Oregon Region only event.  The event is being held in the Field House (Olinger building) at North Salem High School.  The parking lot is for teams and handicapped.  Additional parking is available at Early Learning Center, North Salem High School and if necessary Parrish Middle School.

After passing inspection teams will participate in Qualifying Rounds, Alliance Selection and Elimination Rounds.  There will also be a field open for Skills Challenge runs.  Teams will be limited to three Driving and three Programming Skills Challenge runs.

As an early tournament please do not be intimidated if your robot is still 'in development'.  Many veteran teams will be at the event and they are great resources to help your team.
