Re: Rochester Competition

If you ever get really excited at a FRC event (a reghional or the world championship) ,then you just gotta also attend a FLL (Lego league) event.

The FLL regional in Rochester this past Sunday was soooo much fun. The teams, the parents & mentors, and the event organizwers including the Univ. of Rochester were totally "gracious". Seeing the drive and inspiration in the younger kid's faces is priceless. So, if you think you only like to play with big 'bots...go check out these pics.

ps: All of these teams were sponsored in part by one company (Harris RF Communications Division)...very nicely done!
