Kickoffs
Last Saturday, a record 83 FRC Kickoffs took place simultaneously around the world. A big thanks to our Kickoff Coordinators and all the other volunteers who made them happen! You are fine examples of one of the greatest strengths in FIRST – our volunteers.
Robot in 3 Days
Have you seen this? A robot built in 3 days capable of playing ULTIMATE ASCENT: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BfyzbV6k02A&feature=youtu.be
Congratulations to the build team and the sponsors! While the robot isn’t ‘exactly’ legal for FRC competition, it’s amazing to see what can be done in such a short time when folks put their minds to it – and that disc shooter is sweet.
I’ll blog again soon.

*What isn’t ‘exactly’ legal about it?
