Robotics Team

Today was the official first meeting of the robotics team. There are different teams in different classes and grades. It's a program I signed up for through Explore, a Gifted and Talented club that is single gender. We meet every Tuesday at lunch. Anyway, 2 friends and I planned that we were going to be a team. We decided that today would be a good time, since we all have busy schedules. We decided three main things: our team name, when we will meet for the next meeting, and what we would build. After voting for a team name, my idea, the MechaNecks, we moved on to our project. All three of us brainstormed together, and decided we'd make a simple robot to get familiar with the kit. We are going to make a robot that shoots balls at a target. Then for the competition, we have to make one that will navigate a maze in the shortest time.
So here it goes! Once we receive the Lego Mindstorms kit, we can start work. But at least we have a binder cover!
