Next Saturday we are hosting a regional middle and high school robotics tournament.

Information is below.

Come and watch - maybe cheer on your school.

Please help me spread the word - we would like to get a big audience. Send word to anyone you think would be interested, particularly middle and high school teachers. We would like to get more schools participating next year.

We have some volunteers already (Ross, Kate, Jeff), but we could use one or two more.

We need someone to take pictures and videos that we can post on the robotics website.
