Does anyone know a good website that gives a crash course in sign language? (Or iPhone/Droid app.) I'd also be particularly interested in learning the signs for things related to robots, which might actually be useful at competition. 
On a sadder note, 217 will no longer be attending laser tag on Thursday night, or so I've heard. Apparently, too many other teams are doing it, and they don't have enough room for us. I can understand, as we have roughly 70 people we're traveling with, but it's still disappointing. 
I'll just rely on other teams to hear stories of how great it was. |
I remember when team 1991 won rookie all star at BAE.
Half of the members on th eteam were hearing impaired and the audience saluted them with a silents standing ovation.
It was quite inspiring to see.
