Re: What to do with all these poof balls?

we will probably be shooting them into the crowd at the Memorial day parade. This gives us great exposure to our community and shows our neighbors some of the things required to compete this year. Last year we drove our robot for the entire length of the parade route ( about 2 miles), using three 9 v batteries to power the OI and 3 batteries for the bot itself. It was really cool and has helped us out with community outreach programs and public awareness campaign. We will also be letting anybody drive our robot and shoot for a prize at our 4th of July celebration (about 12000 people attend), and ask for a donation.
