Re: Any older robotics hobbyists out there?
Hi Jorge,
I've seen your posts on vex - skimoose here - hey I'm 42 and got involved as a coach with my kids for LEGO League 4 years ago and moved up to mentor FRC two years ago. Don't be envious! Have fun - get involved - help start a team if necessary - just do it. There's just as much satisfaction and challenge helping a FIRST team. As far as Vex goes. You won't have to wait long. According to the FIRST website, kickoff for this years 2006 FIRST Vex Challenge is October 2006. If there aren't any FIRST teams in your area, approach the local school system, boy & girls club, scouting groups, or other local youth groups about starting a FIRST Vex team. You won't regret. ![]() |

Re: Any older robotics hobbyists out there?
Let's just say that I am old enough to have watched the original live broadcast of The Beatles on the Ed Sullivan Show, and leave it at that.
Yes, there are some of us out here. Welcome aboard! -dave Last edited by dlavery : 30-08-2005 at 00:26. |

Re: Any older robotics hobbyists out there?
I'm 39 and have been interested in Robotics/AI since 1984. My kids aren't in High School yet, but they like the lego robotics mindstorm for now...
