Picktown Throwdown 2.0
WEATHER UPDATE
1/11/2025 6:00 AM
Picktown Throwdown 2.0 is extending a 2 hour delay for teams that need the extra time due to weather conditions. Teams can also arrive as scheduled and use the time for practice and to begin interviews. We look forward to seeing you. We will have hot beverages waiting for you. Be safe and see you soon.
1/10/2025
We are closely monitoring the weather conditions, with the hope that the worst will occur overnight and that the roads will be sufficiently addressed by morning.
Please be assured that everyone’s safety remains our top priority.
Depending on how the weather progresses, we will proceed with one of the following options:
- Continue as scheduled
- Delay by 2 hours
- Cancel the tournament
Should we need to implement either Option 2 or 3, an email will be sent to the address on file through Robot Events.
Thank you for your understanding, and we will keep you updated as needed.
