Looks like there won't be a role for ham radio this year.  I'm looking
forward to next year.  FTG!

Howdy Team,
Please read below about the status of the race.  It's not all bad news, so
please read, take the survey and be part of what we CAN create.  There are
some exciting things planned.

If you are a judge and were making a trophy, there are a few options.  If
you already made it AND we can move forward with a Labor Day Race, we can
use for that (specially if it's a huge, heavy trophy you don't want to
mail).  If no race Labor Day, we can save for next year.

There will be categories for our streaming event, so once those are
determined (the categories) we still need some sort of trophy/prize.  If
you are still interested in making something, please let me know. It would
need to be small, not heavy and something that would fit in a small
mailer.  They will all be sent to me and I will mail them out to the
winners of the categories we have.

We WILL all get through this together. We are a tight family!!!
FTG!!!!!   Jen-O

Dear Kinetinauts,

Will there be a Kinetic Grand Championship this year? Will big crowds
gather in all the usual Glory spots to cheer on their favorite teams in
just a few short weeks? No. ... But, it wouldn't be the beginning of summer
in Humboldt without the insanity which keeps us sane, so there can't NOT be
a Kinetic something.

Memorial Day Weekend Kinetic Universe will present the "2020 Kinetic
Sculpture in Place", a three day online human powered art event May 23rd,
24th, and 25th. Artists, engineers, athletes, and Glory hogs of all ages
will compete  in the traditional categories of Art, Speed, Engineering, and
Pageantry plus some online exclusive awards just for this year (we all
hope.) This event will be open to all members of the community who are able
to meet the Kinetic challenges, and is not limited to previously registered
race teams.

Kinetic Universe is calling on KGC teams and volunteers to help us craft
the specific challenges. Teams will perform the challenges and record
themselves, then submit videos by a pre-Memorial Day weekend deadline.
Check out the categories and criteria on our planning page, then send your
ideas to Kinetic Universe by Wednesday April 8th. Event rules and
registration will then be published by April 15th, and everyone can get to
work!

If you have time and skills to offer Kinetic Universe, we'd be happy to
have more help with this brand-new-totally-being-built-right-now - version
of Kinetic Madness. On our volunteer page you can find more information
about ways to get involved.
