Kick Off!!

We began the year with Kick Off! We gathered at Great Plains and had a buffet breakfast provided by team members. We watched this year's kickoff on the big screen at Great Plains. Lots of fun for the whole team!

​Week Three Highlights

​We mounted are wheels on to the robot, and finished two of the game pieces. The programming for the robot has began. The marketing team continued to work on the unicorn head and the team standards. 









​

Brainy Bots!

We had one of our annual Brainy Bots meetings. We helped 4th and 5th graders build Lego Robots with the mindstorm kit. We also helped them program their robots to dance and go through a maze.

Week Two Highlights 

We finalized the chassis plan and started making game pieces. The marketing worked on the safety animation. We also got our unicorn head for competition.








​

First Meeting of the School Year

We met for the first time this School year, though we are not in-season yet. We began organizing and cleaning our pit/robotics room, as well as solidifying our schedule. Our favorite T-shirt designers, Cortney and Emily, began a design for off-season T-Shirts.

​

Week One Highlights

We brainstormed for the game, listing out  the game pieces and analyzing each one. We decided on pneumatic wheels and a 6-wheel design utilizing a tank drive. Our focus this year will be to traverse obstacles and climb. We decided on a theme and possible script for our safety animation and we made a new chant. We also started on our standard and on making a wooden field.

Over the Season

We've had a pretty busy summer. We went to the Tri-Rivers Fair, here in Salina. Where we demonstrated our robot from last year, Stella. We also talked about our team and FIRST Robotics at the event. We also did a demonstration at Central High's Freshman Orientation Club Fair. We hope to get many new recruits this year, as many people seemed interested.
