[GilaMonsterAlex]

Hello All!

I'm the lead mentor for the Yuma Community Team (Team 3785), the GILA MONSTERS!

I'm creating this thread to introduce the team, and as an assignment to our new Gila Monster team members. Thier assignment is to introduce themselves in this forum and what they expect to achieve this year. Please use your initials to sign, so I know who you are.

Ok, now to introduce the team. We're a 2nd year veteren team, in Yuma, AZ. Last year, our rookie year, we started two weeks before kickoff. We were all new, and didn't know much about robots. 3 months later we came home with the Quality Award at the AZ Regional.

This year we're planning ahead, and starting the teaching process sooner by partnering with the local community college and started a class for the high school students to learn about FIRST and robots. We'll go over last years robot, and add the things we wanted to do for LOGOMOTION. This should be a great prep for next years game, and get the creative juices flowing.

So, with that, join me in introducing the 2012 Gila Monsters! We're ready for the 2012 season!
