What did you get done on kickoff?

Here is what we got done yesterday

The Atomic Dragons started off the day at Upper Darby High School. Met up with some old friends from some of the other teams, checked in and found our seats. The students, teachers, mentors, parents and guests were all excited and a little tired since many of them were dreaming of first games all night and didn't get much sleep.

We listened to some speakers and watched a few videos from Boeing and the excitement started to grow as it grew closer to 10:30.

Then the pre-recorded Kickoff video started. The lack of live presentation showed as the energy level in the videos was eh at best. But then the CEO from PTC came on and really picked up the energy.

As the game video was shown everyone started whispering ideas to each other.

The team then moved over to our build space and started working on getting the walls up, doing inventory and going through the rules.

The funniest idea so far is to build a robot named Larry Bird that shoots nothing but 3’s
