Hello, everyone.

The team discussed the following data on this week's meeting:

* Permission Forms for Peachtree Regional Participation
* Robotics T-Shirt Dues
* Robotics Social @ Peachtree Ridge
* Workday Lunch
* FIRST Robotics Competition: Events (+ Scrimmage)

1. Permission Forms for Peachtree Regional Participation
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Members, please complete and return your permission forms by Monday, March 14, to Mrs. Rutland at D216. Members will be able to participate on the competition on Friday, March 18, only if they return their permission forms.

2. Robotics T-Shirt Dues
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The new team t-shirts will arrive next week. Please bring $6-8 dollars to cover the cost for your shirt.

3. Robotics Social @ Peachtree Ridge
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
There will be a robotics social after the competition on Friday, March 18, at Peachtree Ridge High School. Peachtree Ridge robotics members who are attending the social only need to pay half the cost of the normal cost for their dinner.

4. Workday Lunch
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The team will eat cheese/pepperoni pizza for lunch on Saturdays. Parents, if you are able to provide low-cost lunches to the team, you will be fully reimbursed and will have a special place in our hearts. Parents who are able to bring the pizza from the pizza parlor to the school are also welcome.

Please note that the team will not supply lunch on Sundays.
