June 10, 2010 Dear Baja SAE Rochester Wet World Challenge Participants, On behalf of RIT and our entire local organizing committee I would like to welcome you and your team to RIT and this year’s event. We hope that you notice the extra “perks” that we have arranged for each and every team – free breakfasts, free lunch, free banquet, free pizza dinner, several types of free t-shirts and plenty of special awards. Our committee has been preparing for this event for over one year. Thousands of volunteer hours of hard work have gone into the planning and preparation for this event. We are well aware that despite our preparations problems will arise during the competition. Please be assured that we will handle these problems in the most equitable and safest way possible. Our Officials, Design Judges, Technical Inspectors and other volunteers have all pledged to be fair and professional while carrying out their assigned duties. Please understand that we will do our best to make this the most memorable Baja SAE event ever. We would like you to have an enjoyable, educational and exciting stay in the Rochester area and at RIT. Thanks again for participating and best of luck to all, Marty Gordon, PE Associate Professor, RIT Chief Organizer, Baja SAE Rochester Wet World Challenge
