The
meeting to decide on captains worked out well, although a few
people still didn't show up. Minutes of the meeting were taken, and can
be found here. The
meeting was very
productive, and should help us organize this team so that we can get
the Battlebot done this year! We really need to figure out who
is interested in Battlebots before any captain meetings can be
organized.
The next meeting is on September 29th at PACT and goes from 3:30PM -
4:30PM. This meeting should help us figure out how much interest in
battlebots there is. If you have any questions, contact Deblockholmes.
Next
Thursday, Feb 3rd at 7:00 p.m. we are having a meeting for the
Battle Bots parents. We'll share all the info that we have regarding
our trip to Florida, and what your student can do to earn money for the
trip. We'd also like to know if any of the families are planning on
coming down. If you have any questions, feel free to call me, or bring
your questions to the meeting.
Although
the new site is up, there are many things that need to be
updated and fixed. Don't be surprised to see quite a few changes during
the next week or so. Look out for some graphical updating also.
Notice
new DRED logo in the upper left hand corner.
The
competition is scheduled for April
12 - 17th, 2005. I didn't ask
how much of that was for college, and how much was for getting ready,
but you can at least plan to be available that week. Mark your
calendars now!
I
just heard last night that the competition this year will be at
Universal Studios in Florida.
Start saving your pennies, the trip will be a little more spendy this
year, but fun.
