We're preparing for a few community events coming up in the next month. Also training new members... I can speak for programming, we'll be training kids on LEGO Mindstorms (mainly NXT-G, don't have the new one yet) first then labVIEW. Rookies who are good with it could eventually go onto mentor FLL teams in the area.

We are currently fundraising for the upcoming season, preparing for our fll tournament, and trying to get as much programming on our AUV as possible before FIRST comes.

We're working on fundraising, our trebuchet for the Tucson Pumpkin Toss, refurbishing our FRC robot for Tucson Tussle and two Vex Toss Up robots, as well as training our members in the various aspects of making robots.

To answer OP's question we are...

- Planning for a few FLL events (training sessions, scrimmage, and tournament).
- Training new members with VRC (four team of 4-5 members a piece).
- Preparing a new-ish machine for GRITS (applying lessons learned and playing with pneumatics).
- Creating a new marketing platform for the team (blind pitch documents, presentations, new sponsorship tiers, etc.)
- Trying to raise some money.

Soon, we plan to...

- Start lessons for FRC (machine shop, CAD, etc.)
- Build a telescoping elevator.
- Plan for kickoff.
- Disassemble all of our prototypes and extraneous machines.
- Clean up and organize the shop.
- Place large orders for parts and raw materials for the 2014 FRC season.

Who says the off-season isn't busy?
