Wow, this brings the selection of team colors and mascots to a whole new level. Thank you, Feliks, for sharing that.

And now back to the superficial... our team logo was tweaked after our first year, but has since remained the same. And after two years with the same shirt we added some extra details this year to make it distinctive for 2008 (umm, it actually says 2008 on it! ) But our trademark Red Camo will be around for a while! That was actually challenging this year, since we have been buying a large bolt of the cloth each year, and this year found it to be unavailable. But we've recycled old camo team pants (the pants are still available for sale) for our robots bumpers and other decor.

As for the mascot. We use our school's mascot, a bald eagle. If we ask nice, he sometimes comes to our competitions.
