Well as a rookie team we have a lot of groundwork to lay, but I have to say, after our first all team meeting today our team is very excited!
Here is our plan for the preseason:
- In-Team Seminars: Electrical/Pneumatics, Robovation, Programming, Mechanical Design, Drivetrain, Tools, etc
- Rookie Team Seminars: hosted by other local teams?
- Mini-Competitions: Lego Robots, paper bridge, etc.
- Subteam Work: Electrical, Programming, Webpage, Business/Marketing, Fundraising, Awards, etc.
- Build a drive train and a mechanism (arm?)
- Produce an animation
- Produce a student webpage
- Fundraising
- Tours of our company
Check out our temp webpage for more info:
www.penfieldrobotics.com (I put this together, so it doesnt count as student done, but is just serving info until they put one together).
We are meeting once a week starting next week, and will be having the subteams meet whenever they can.
If anyone else knows a starting rookie team, I have a ton of our documentation already that I can provide... I just have to get it all together as a usable format!!
If any teams have awesome fundraising ideas, PM me
