: Hey - I was just wondering, what do you people do during the off season to educate up and coming members about FIRST and all the technical stuff involved with it?
Let's see, I rummage through all the stuff i got from florida. I wear all the pins on my tshirt, wear the medals, wear the FIRST tshirts, visit the chiefdelphi site everyday, dream about that funky square-circle-triangle logo, and day dream about what could make our robot work better.
no, i dont really do that, but sometimes, it seems like i do. hehe.
build a robot
doesn't have to be as complicated. Build a 1/8 scale version of the field (using ping pong balls), and build a 1/8 scale robot. We did this for design week, why dont you try building one for fun?
As for other things to do, try wearing all your florida pins and see what happens. If you get that funny poking feeling on your chest...that means you either miss first a lot or you pinned your chest.
