Since we graduated most of our shop detail and much of our leadership from the last two years, it will be a struggle to get this up and going. Time for the newbies to step up I guess!

Bring it, even if it's broken. We'll get it fixed one way or another, and it'll give your new students a taste of what it really means to be in FIRST! If you identify any control system components that need to be replaced ahead of time, let me know and I'll find replacements for you. We probably have them sitting around our shop collecting dust anyways
