The morning was foggy with a slight drizzle as the teams assembled and drove to the competition pits (which were right in Ames!). Students completed 2 individual pits in the morning:
 |
| (L - R) Mike Waldvogel, Muhamed Ibrahim, Rusty Zimmerman, Kat LaBine, Katie Ring, Jeff Tanaka, Kalei Holt and Jessica Beske wait for their pit assignments. |
 |
| Individual Pit #1 |
 |
| Individual Pit #2 |
With a 90% chance of rain in the afternoon, the teams ate lunch and moved sites to judge 3 team pits.
 |
| Team discussion at team pit #2. |
The team pits ended in a downpour - but the team was very tightly knit this year and nobody wanted to leave without a picture in the rain.
Tomorrow - back home to the Twin Cities!
