Lego Robotics III

(Our team is 914, they ran the program three times. The picture below is the team cheering because they were able to complete one of the harder tasks.)
WE ARE GOING TO STATE!!!!

The Banks Bots have struck again.
They got First place!
January 17th they will be going to state.
What a year, these kids and their coaches work very hard to get to this point. Hours and hours are put into this competition, they meet every Friday and Saturday evening for about two hours every time and then the closer we get to competition the more hours they put into it. They have to build a Robot, program it to complete tasks. They have to put together a presentation, present it to the community. They have to be drilled on how they built the robot, how they programmed it, what they learned, how they work as team and sooooo many more areas.
A Big Thank you to Uncle Sid, and Dan for all the hard work they put into this every year!!
