Re: 100 Days until Kickoff 2014
A long overdue total re-structuring and re-branding of our whole team. New mentors, teachers, students, sponsors, tools, logos, workspaces and attitude.

Re: 100 Days until Kickoff 2014
We're preparing for a few community events coming up in the next month. Also training new members... I can speak for programming, we'll be training kids on LEGO Mindstorms (mainly NXT-G, don't have the new one yet) first then labVIEW. Rookies who are good with it could eventually go onto mentor FLL teams in the area.

We are currently fundraising for the upcoming season, preparing for our fll tournament, and trying to get as much programming on our AUV as possible before FIRST comes.

We're working on fundraising, our trebuchet for the Tucson Pumpkin Toss, refurbishing our FRC robot for Tucson Tussle and two Vex Toss Up robots, as well as training our members in the various aspects of making robots.

Sounds a bit similar to us. New team structure, new training, new fundraising goal (10 times last years), New machines.

Re: 100 Days until Kickoff 2014
2220 is busy with a mock build season for an offseason in November, along with organizing and assisting the 8 FTC teams that work with us in our shop... it's a little bit chaotic right now!

Also working on acquiring and maintaining sponsor relationships and partnerships... more on that later .
