All 8 of us UMATT team members including Dr. Petkau have safely arrived in Peoria Illinois. The van crew had to made a small detour to Thomson linear actuator to pick up a potentiometer for them to install. We also got a tour of the Thomson facility. Both the van and truck arrived at our hotel and we checked in around 9pm and are getting a quick bite to eat before our first day of competition tomorrow starting at 8am, starting with initial weigh in and tech inspection.

Its been a long day for all of us and its time to sleep. 🙂
