Working Hard

It's a ways into the season, and things are looking up to the stars for us. We've been working hard with fundraising, trying to let people know that we need money in order to fund our robot, and to send us really grateful for.

to future competitions, if we make it. So far, people have been incredibly generous! We've reached over one thousand dollars so far, to which we are really,

If it weren't for the people who have donated, we would never have gotten this far, and because of them, we will have enough money to buy more parts, spread the word about FTC, and even be able to donate to other teams like us.

So, we're giving a huge shout-out to our donors. We love you guys! If you would like to help us along on our path and donate to us, you can visit our page with the link below. There you'll find all of us, and be able to visit our individual pages.

Here is the link.

On other matters, we've been brainstorming hard about ideas in which to score the most points. Our biggest goals for point scoring is to be able to hang from the highest point of the "mountain," and to be able to collect as much "debris" as possible and deposit it into the boxes on the mountain. These two things will most likely get us the most points in the quickest amount of time.

Our strategy is to conquer the most valuable and important obstacles first, and then add on the smaller ones later in the season. That's going off of last year's experience. People are right when they say to learn from your mistakes.

The season's going great for us so far, so hopefully we'll be able to keep our heads up and continue on strong.

Brainstorming hard. :)

This is the "Debris."

This is the "Mountain."




We finally got all the motors working and spinning right today. Huge success.
