As per Deans' homework for this year, team 1557 is trying to connect as many people to FIRST as possible.
One way we are going at this is through FaceBook, and our vertically-challenged robot-mascot Volty Mcnut. (His Page)
http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#/p...8020444&ref=ts
Volty would like to add 1,000 friends to his facebook page(atm he has 42). His page contains a link to our website and to FIRST's website. Volty also posts comments and pictures from time to time. He will make it a point to add information about FIRST and Team 1557 to keep his friends involved, as well as posting important deadlines and saftey reminders throughout.
As the build season draws to a close, Volty will encourage his friends to attend the Regionals at UCF, or for those that live outside the Central Florida area, help find a Regional-Event near them.
He may even offer a printable version of the souvenir ticket and a printable 12 Volt Bolt team name tag with the words Guest of Honor printed where our tags say mentor or student.
Please help Volty find new friends by joining his facebook page and by encouraging your friends to join.
Volty (and 1557) thanks you for your support.
