Re: What are your victories?

1. Build an elegant, effective robot.
2. Build an identical practice robot for the first time.
3. Have both running by Day 45 (even with painting/ anodizing the competition robot).
4. Win engineering awards at both of our regionals.

In terms of the non-technical side of our program, we have worked hard and found success in forming partnerships with local businesses and organizations and participating in and running numerous public events (including currently a 6-week after-school program at a local high school).

Even though we didn't qualify for Championships, I'd consider the 2014 season our best ever: we're figuring out how to build good robots and developing a strong team brand.

I'm already looking forward to 2015.
