Re: Maker City Faire at the Henry Ford Museum
Maker City Faire was an exciting but exhausting weekend It is hard to describe the things that we experienced this weekend. The exploding pop, the singing lobster/fish car, the raining swings, the full size Mouse Trap game and the list goes on. The crowd loved the Martians (FRC0494) Time Machine and Alpha Omegas (FRC0470) Cow and other small robots. How exciting that we could take part in this first Maker Faire at the Henry Ford Museum.

We had 9 FRC teams, 1 FTC team and 1 FLL team. Next year, we are adding a Junior FLL team to complete the group.

During the weekend, our team, FRC0815, was able to entice a new Mentor, picked up a few new student members and received a $700 donation from Autodesk. Not a bad weekend.
