BunnyBots 2012 - Ping Pong Panic

[Dale]

We’re happy to announce that BunnyBots 2012, “Ping Pong Panic” is now officially underway. Registration, rules, and details can be found at http://www.team1540.org/bunnybots. The competition is Dec 15th.

This pre-season FRC-style competition is a great way to get new members up to speed before the more stressful FRC build season starts. It’s also a handy way for existing members to learn new skills and for teams to bond as a unit. Registration is first come first served. Last year we maxed out at 24 teams so if you want to take part, register now at the above link. You can bring as many robots as you like, the fee is $100 per robot which covers materials, wear and tear on the carpet, janitorial, etc.

Our event is hosted in Portland, Oregon by team 1540, the Flaming Chickens. Teams interested in running a BunnyBot event in their area should PM me for information on what it takes and logistical details. There's nothing that says you have to do this year's game. We have game designs from previous years online at www.oregonfirst.org under the "events" pulldown.
