October 12, 2011 Team Meeting

Houston, we have a problem!

For the first time the various teams split out and started working on their particular parts of the project.

One of the teams (won’t say who) ran some “tests” on last year’s robot, with mixed results. See photos for the incriminating evidence.

Hopefully things go more smoothly next week. ;0)

Someone call Maintenance!

 

Team Photo Night

Hi, team, We will be taking photos of each of the teams at the meeting on Wednesday, Oct. 12th. Bring your smiling faces and wear something special, or NOT special — however you want to be remembered on the website. See you at the meeting!
