Our robotics competition season starts Saturday with a couple of events.
Sign up here for the events you will attend
Saturday, January 9, 2016 KICKOFF @ ViaSat
Come watch the official release of this year’s game! We’ll watch a video overview of the game and see the field elements. After kickoff, we’ll head over to SDA to start planning our robot design.
Sign up (above) and meet at LCC this Saturday morning at 6:30 am. Information from the kickoff organizers is attached
Brainstorming Sessions @ SAN DIEGUITO ACADEMY
If you can’t make it to the kickoff event, come to some (or all) of the brainstorming sessions at SDA. Their robotics team has invited us back and is going to mentor our team for a second year. The sessions start after Kickoff at ViaSat on Saturday and we’ll continue on Sunday.
We’ll meet in their media center and discuss this year’s game, including rules, limitations and strategies. This is an important part of our overall robot design planning. It’s fun!
There is lunch served both days at SDA. Again, please sign up if you will make any or all of the brainstorming sessions.
It’s okay if you can only drop in one or both days. Any time you can put in will help the team!

We need help carpooling the team over to the kickoff at ViaSat. We’d also like to help pull our weight with the SDA team team, so if you can help serve lunch or bring food either day, it would be appreciated.
