Monday-Thursday claims to be 6:30-9, but most people come around seven and leave around 9:20-10

Friday is the "mentor rest day" xD

Saturday's 9am-5pm, Sunday's noon-5pm. But this year might be different because the week before ship date is our break, so we may meet more often then.

Re: Build Season Time Chart
 

Monday- Friday- morning schedule- 12noon- 2:30pm (all of build), evenings- 6:30-9:30 early in the build, 6pm- Xam starting week 3ish

Saturday - 9am-5pm early in the build, 6am- Xam starting week 3ish.
Sunday- 1pm-5pm early in the build, 6am-Xam starting week 3ish.

Who meets?
Week 1- All subgroups/all = 80+ students at any given time
Week 2- Usually electrical doesn't have much to do so they may or may not come
Week 3- All teams meet
Week 4- Drivetrain usually doesn't need to come anymore
Week 5- Adult Core engineering team and Student Core Engineering teams meet along with most useful underclassmen (total 30ish kids)
Week 6- Whatever needs to get done gets done.

Re: Build Season Time Chart
 

We usually work 4-8 on weekdays and 8-4 on Saturday, though if we're on a time crunch we'll work later. Some of us work at lunch as well, but that's less often, and it's usually just electrical

Re: Build Season Time Chart
 

We're in Australia and it is currently summer holidays so we are currently meeting from 9am to 9pm every day until Australia day (26th of January)
After that we probably will be meeting from about 4 (most schools finish at ~3) to 9.

Thanks,

Re: Build Season Time Chart
 

Our team is fairly small so everyone meets pretty much every day. Some days we don't meet if we are waiting on parts to be made or shipped. Mentors come according to their schedules and our need of them, usually about 2 or 3 days a week. Since we work at our school, our times are

mon-fri: 2:00 to between 5 and 7 based on how much work we have to do. Some fridays last til the school shuts off power for the night at 10.

sat: 9 to 5

towards the end of build we tend to work longer.

Re: Build Season Time Chart
 

Mon, Thurs, Fri - 5:00-8:00
Sat - 9:00-2:00

We meet later so our mentors, who work at Medtronic, can come to the meetings after work. Plus, anyone who wants to do homework can stay and do so between 3:00 (end of school) and the start of the meeting. We get like 20-30 people.

We only meet 4 times a week and for 3 hours on week days, which seems to be A LOT less than most teams. Yet we get everything done on time for shipping and without excessive stress. :confused: I really don't know why this is, we're not some super team or have been around since the beginning. Even most "super teams" seem to meet a lot. Do we just do less and set our robot-building goals lower? I don't think we really do..... Don't think that I'm trying to brag, I'm genuinely puzzled as is the rest of our team. I'm mentioning it because people might think it odd that we meet a lot less than (seemingly) most teams and maybe someone has an idea why this still works for us. Anybody? Maybe not?

Re: Build Season Time Chart
 

Tues-Fri is 6-9

See schedule for more info. (So far, we are on track!! That's a FIRST)

And get this... we ran out of time last year, so this year we took out Mondays.

The perks of being a senior or junior in a school district that has several robotics classes including a double block honors robotics class for seniors and juniors. ;)

Re: Build Season Time Chart
 

Team 2207 usually meets:

Tuesday, Wednesday: 3pm-8pm
Thursday: 6pm-8pm
Friday: only if necessary because our mentors have families
Saturday 8am-2pm or later, depending on how late the school is open (it usually is open until 4ish)
