The Year's First Robotics Meeting

I am one of the robotics sponsors for Leon Sheffield.  This team is made-up of 16 students that are selected after completing an information/technology based test.  In robotics students are able to use their creativity to design and construct a robot and then program it to complete a given task.
Our first few meetings are held to set-up our kits.  This takes a LOT of time because the pieces get all mixed up throughout the year during our construction time.  However, it is important for students to begin with a complete kit when robotics starts.  Today we met for an hour and each student worked so hard to get their kits put together.



The group pictured below was the "winning" group.  They were the only group to get an entire kit completely put together today!  Way to go, guys!!
