Greetings Teams:
Kit of Parts Information Available Online: We would like to remind teams that the 2015 Kit of Parts (KoP) will be larger than it has been in past seasons. Please be sure to view the size and weight information available on the 2015 Kit of Parts page, http://www.usfirst.org/roboticsprograms/frc/2015-kit-of-parts, to ensure that your team will have sufficient space to transport the KoP from your Kickoff Event.
Surrogate Kit Pickup Deadline Approaching: If a team is unable to pick up its Kit of Parts (KoP) at the Local Kickoff they have selected, an alternate, or “Surrogate” team may be designated to do so. For more information on the Surrogate Kit Pickup process, please visit: http://www.usfirst.org/roboticsprograms/frc/kickoff#Surrogate.
All Surrogate Kit Pickup letters must be received at FIRST HQ no later than 5:00 pm ET on 12/29/13.
New Items to be Added to FIRST Choice: Teams will have a second opportunity to complete a Priority List for the FIRST Choice Portal starting January 3, 2015 at 12:00 pm ET. Be sure to check out the latest blog post from our Kit of Part Engineers here: http://www.usfirst.org/roboticsprograms/frc/blog-FIRST-Choice-Round-2 for more details.
Reminder: FIRST HQ Closed for Christmas Holiday: FIRST Headquarters will close at 3:00 pm EST on Wednesday, 12/24/14 in recognition of the Christmas holiday. Our regular business hours will resume on Friday, 12/26/14 at 8:30 am EST.
Go Teams!

FRC Team Support
