Re: Team Names – How?

Team 1519's name came from our FLL team Mindstorms M a y h e m who won the Director's Award at the 2004 FLL World Festival in only their second year! As a result, the LEGO Corporation gave us a challenge grant to start an FRC team! So, Mechanical M a y h e m was started in 2005 with graduates from the FLL team. We competed at the BAE Granite State Regional and came home with the Rookie Inspiration Award.

We also started a 501(c)(3) organization called M a y h e m Inc. M a y h e m stands for Milford Area Youth Homeschoolers Enriching Minds because we are a mainly homeschooled team.

Another team began in 2004 called More M a y h e m whose members are mainly siblings of the members of the original team.

Our rookie year's robot was called "Elvis, King of Rack and Rail"
We recently reused it's drivebase for our "three day bot" that we made for M a y h e m in Merrimack. It was called "Elvis Reloaded".
Our 2006 robot was called "Sgt. York" after the WW1 hero.
