Kick-Off - Updated Info + Week One Schedule

[Tanner]

Are you Ready to Rumble?!

Kick-off is this weekend (January 9th) for the upcoming FIRST Robotics Competition season. We will meet at Creekland Middle School at 9:45 AM, and start the actual program at 10:00 AM. We will be joining several other teams in order to draw from each other's experiences. Bear in mind that there will be a Lego League competition going on at the same time in another area of the school.

Please bring money for lunch. There will be pizza, Chick-Fil-A and snacks available.

So, to give everyone a understanding of what Week One (out of the six weeks we are allotted) will be like as far as meetings go, here's a little schedule:

We need parents with technical, construction, software and/or programming interests to meet with us Saturday during Kick-Off (January 9th) as well as Saturday (January 16th) to help with design of the robot and beginning construction. We really need your ideas and experience.

Saturday 9th --- Kick-Off at Creekland Middle School @ 10:00 AM- 5:00 PM
Sunday 10th --- Brainstorm and inventory of Kit of Parts @ 2:00 PM - 4:00 PM
Tuesday 12th -- Brainstorm @ 2:30 PM - 5:00 PM
Thursday 14th - Brainstorm / Decide chassis @ 2:30 PM
Saturday 16th -- Start construction @ 10:00 AM - 4:00 PM (Parent Night)

It is crucial for parents to contribute the robotics team for the team to survive.

Be SURE to mention this to YOUR parents. Get your parents INVOLVED!

PLEASE RSVP to Mrs. Rutland if you and your parent are planning to attend.
