WATCH FOR THE OUTREACH TO THE MIDDLE SCHOOLS, COMMUNITIES AND FUNDRAISING ACTIVITIES -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- San Marin Robitics Club Semi-Finalist in the FTC Contest (photo and video below)
The following is excerpt from club advisor Mr. David Grenewetzki, 12/23/07. The great news is that we made it to the semi-finals of the FIRST Tech Challenge yesterday in Fremont. I'm pretty sure that a good time was had by all as we fought (quite literally) and clawed our way through the qualifying founds, the quarter finals only to be stopped in the semis by the alliance that eventually won the whole thing. It was a lot of fun and we learned some valuable lessons that will be important as we move forward to the FIRST Robotics Challenge that starts with the kickoff meeting on January 5th. Here's some photos and videos from the event...
