2022 PNW Block Party is a Wrap! Watch this space for 2023!
After a successful first event in 2021, Team 2910: Jack in the Bot is excited to host PNW Block Party again this year! PNW Block Party will be a two-day FRC event on October 29th-30th, 2022 at Henry M. Jackson High School in Mill Creek, WA.
We will be playing the 2022 FRC game RAPID REACT with the real FRC field. Teams will have a pit with power, a full set of qualification matches, alliance selections, and playoffs. We will be using the 2022 RAPID REACT rules.
Registration is now closed!
For late registration inquiries, please email Kyle Pihl. We have 25 robots and are planning on 10’ x 10’ pits for each robot. The registration fee is $300. Teams may register a second robot for $100.
