[FTC]: Hey FTC teams, Vex and a chance to be on MTV?

[Rich Kressly]

I'm passing this along from my colleague, Travis Lehman, who teaches at my sister high school, Harriton, in surburban Philadelphia. The competition itself will be on Sat. Oct 6. You would need a Vex robot for the game, high school students for the team, and at least one adult coach to accompany you. Other important details are below, but space is limited, so consider and decide quickly and contact Travis at LehmanT@lmsd.org. All inquiries need to go to Travis directly, not me - I'll only slow the process.

"Hello everyone,

Please pass this on to ANYONE who is involved in FTC.

I know this is short notice, but I’ve set up a fall FTC-type Challenge for ANY team that is interested. I’ve tried to set up the challenge to not be too overwhelming. I’m hoping that this is something to get everyone back into the groove if you haven’t been doing anything over the summer. I know the official season kicks off soon, but I think a challenge like this can give rookies a good idea of what it takes to actually put together a bot before all of the brainstorming begins for the season.

One additional IMPORTANT note: MTV will be filming the event for an episode of "Made". Your students must be willing to sign a release for MTV.

I’ve put together a challenge website and hopefully all of the information you need to get started is located at:
http://www.harriton.lmsdscitech.org/...rm/FallFTC.htm
Please check this site regularly for updates.

Please email me at LehmanT@lmsd.org ASAP if you are interested in competing of if you have general questions."
