The team didn’t do well at the Belton Competition. They finished 31/33. The kit robot, Kraken, malfunctioned but has been repaired.

The Farmersville competition will be March 27-29. The team will be using the scratch robot, Hydra. Parents are welcome to come and be spectators.

Friday will be the load in. Departure information for Saturday morning will be posted to SportsU.

The end of year party will be held on April 24 at 6:30 pm. It will be held at Carrabbas (3400 N Central Expy, Plano, TX 75074). The fees paid by the team members at the beginning of the year included the party. If adults wish to attend, it will cost $30 per person. A slide show of photos from the year will be made into a slide show. There will be a projector at the event to show everyone.

Next year, the team will be headquartered in the old Haggard Middle School building. We will be sharing the small gym with the ROTC.

If you know of anyone from Vines or Clark that would be interested in joining the robotics team, please send them our way. They can email Lori Hoffmann for more information.

Next year, the booster club will need to fill all board positions.
