We are excited to let you know that Team Registration is open for the 2014 Maker Faire FTCquel !
Maker Faire is a weekend commitment! It is May 16-18 at San Mateo Fairgrounds. Setup and robot inspection is required starting Friday afternoon and teams will participate in matches throughout the weekend – and help with packout on Sunday. We will include time “off” for both Saturday and Sunday for teams to go out and enjoy Maker Faire – it is crazy fun.
Your $125 Team Registration includes weekend entry for team members (up to 4 student team members) plus 1 adult mentor or coach. Also, includes a shirt and custom FTCquel Maker Faire pin for each person. You will be able to add additional team members and additional adults in the payment section. In addition, we will need a signed Maker Faire release form from all team members and adults participating and we will need names of everyone participating.
This off-season competition is limited to 16 teams!
