Build a showbot, which will be used in the Fourth of July parade. We are trying to build it mostly with what we have on hand, which is a challenge. Also, we only have about a month to get this done, so we have to keep it simple (and hopefully modular so we can put at-shirt shooter on it after the parade; shooting anything isn't allowed during the parade.) We may also use this as a platform to prototype various mechanisms.

Train more people in CAD

Redesign/prototype our swerve drive

Repair a scooter for a disabled student at a local middle school.

Work on Chairman's

We were inspired by the Pink Team 233, and may try to build a SWAT bot for our police department. I don't think we will finish this over the summer, it might take an extra year.

Fll outreach to the last schools in our district hopefully. Also planning for starting an FTC team.

Fundraise, State Fair, business presentations, outreach, team building, etc.

If you are interested in building a SWAT bot, team 233 will soon sell a kit to do so. Refer to http://www.roccobotics.com/
