As the day continued, they started matches. If you were watching on the live stream, you would have seen us in action! If not: You will see photos at the bottom and I will start to explain.
Our Qualification Matches are: 9, 25, 47, 57, 78, 91, 101, 122, and 132. Tune in tomorrow to the live stream. #Support Lets do this! We only got to play the first two with the time allotted and we are currently in 8th place! We are 2-0 and extremely excited for tomorrow. Tomorrow will consist of many more matches, scouting, and going to the big dome (we are currently at Union Station)! At the Edwards Jones Dome we will have opening ceremonies, a college/scholarship row, and we will be able to see the FRC (First Robotics Competition) and the FLL (First Lego League)... We will also be able to see the companies who helped sponsor this event and get a lot of one on one information from them. I don't really have a lot of information except for good news. The robot is still working great as well as the team members. Just remember: Gracious Professionalism and Continuous Improvement! Thank you so much to the community/business's who helped get us here! You guys mean SO much to us! #MonkeySwag #WorldChampionship #International #SUPERCOOL

Thank you so much to the community/business's who helped get us here! You guys mean SO much to us! #MonkeySwag #WorldChampionship #International #SUPERCOOL As I type this, the team is going through final preparations before leaving for the World Championship this afternoon. Drivers and programmers are practicing, the notebook, bill of materials, and other related things are being printed, and all sorts of other last-minute preparations are taking place. With competition starting at 2:30 Wednesday afternoon, the livestream link to watch our division's matches has been posted at http://livestream.com/accounts/13199388/FTC-Edison
Other information on the championship, including livestreams for other divisions and the event schedule, is available at http://championship.usfirst.org/ Molly will be blogging about World's twice a day at http://dangerouslyirrelevant.org/ Be sure to check there for updates from us personally, as well as continuing to follow our own website! Our various projects are coming along nicely! The souvenirs we'll be distributing at World's are coming in now. The stickers and keychains are in, the buttons are being made, and the new shipment of business cards is on order, as are a new set of team shirts that we're getting so we don't have to wear the same shirts four days in a row. The robot is mostly ready. Every component we need is on the robot, and we're now alternately practicing driving and testing autonomous, which includes all sorts of new features!
There will be a parent meeting regarding additional information about World's on Tuesday, April 14 at 6:00 PM at the robotics room. The meeting will include updated information about our finances, rooming, etc.. Please feel free to share the GoFundMe link through various social media, as every donation helps!
GoFundMe: http://www.gofundme.com/sockmonkeys Hey you guys (and gals)! I just thought I would give you guys a quick update. We have been so busy because and I'm sure you already know: We made it to Worlds! Congrats to all the FLL, jr. FLL, FTC and FRC teams that made it! We are SO excited to see you there again and to the new teams who made it just this year: If you need any help or advise on ANYTHING, we got you. :D
Aside from that, we have been trying to fundraise like crazy. We have been talking to so many business's and have been sending out so many emails... The robot is doing well too! She is "staying alive" if you know what I mean. ;] We have had parent meetings and we've been updating and getting ready for and as I said earlier...fundraising. One of our mentors: Mrs. Eveland set up a GoFundMe account and it will be listed below. If you guys (and gals) could at all donate at least 10 dollars to help us get to Worlds that would be fantastic! We hope you are just as excited as us! Thank you so much to all of our sponsors, returning sponsors and support. http://www.gofundme.com/qxhsmk |
