Re: Lots of robot competitions out there

Want to engage high school students using the current topic of infrastructure?
http://www.constructionchallenge.org/
Construction Challenge is back! Sponsored by Association of Equipment Manufacturers (AEM) and Volvo Construction Equipment through partnership with Destination ImagiNation, January 15th will hold Regional Rallies in 8 cities. Advancing teams will go to Finals at CONEXPO/CON-AGG in Las Vegas in March. If you have high school students, form a team of 5-7 students, do 6-8 hours of research on infrastructure (roads, bridges, drinking water and wastewater), and come to a Regional Rally for hands on activities where they will apply their knowledge in 3 fun Challenges. This is workforce development initiative that highlights careers that use math and science.
