I am honored to be known as such a person. Welcome to the scouting world of FIRST! Below, I have put together different posts from previous threads of what Justin is talking about. If you would like more information, let me know. This year, I am passing off the torch, for I will be away at college. I will continue to help out where I can. Know that I think about it, SparX is not that far away from Oswego!
I wonder what Dylan thinks about that...

I brought my laptop to The Championship, where some students and I went around and asked questions and punched the answers in the laptop. The students and I also found pictures of most of the robots before The Championship started, and we stored them in the laptop as well. It was great to have everything in one small place. And it came in handy for the Einstein Field (ask 1126) . |
