Congratulations Team!

After 6 weeks of hard work, close to 5,000 hours of work, countless pasta diners, and enough drinking cup to fill a recycling truck, the robot was Bagged and Tagged on time at 11:45PM. 

The maximum weight of the robot is 119.2 pounds out of 120 pounds.  Also, it was shipped completed - driving, throwing, picking up the balls and has a awesome autonomous program . There are a few small items that will need to be taken care of at our first event at WPI, but nothing major.

Everyone of the Team should be VERY proud of what you have done, the adults on the team are amazed at the dedication of the students. Your hard work has shown in the robot you have made!

We still have a long ways to go but we would like to take a minute and thank all the Volunteers, Parents, Students, and Sponsors for all their time and energy, this could not have been done with out you!

There are a few upcoming meetings that everyone needs to attend:

Starting February 27th, we will be meeting from 6:30PM to 9:00PM to fix the practice robot and we will also have drivers practice. We will continue to meet every other day until March 2nd. If you are interested in driving, navigating, or being a human player please come to these meetings.

On Friday, March 2nd, we will have Spirit Day! More on that later.

And on Saturday March 3rd - Several team members will be heading up to the Manchester Regional, to observe the matches and check out the robots. Everyone is welcome to come along (we will be taking private vehicles up.) We highly recommend that you come with us, to check out other teams strategy.

If you have any question please email Raj (raj@shrewsburyrobotics.org)

Go Team!
