:The Westtown event was co-hosted by teams 1391 (based at the Westtown School) and 1640 and was a huge success. This was the first time the two teams had worked together to host a robotics tournament. According to Clem McKown, the Volunteer Coordinator for the event: “The Westtown School provides a wonderful venue for a robotics competition, while neighboring team 1640 has a much larger volunteer base of students, mentors and parents as well as experience in hosting FLL competitions. It was natural for us to team up to host a tournament. Together, we put on a great event. Many of the volunteers have already indicated that they will volunteer again next year.”

DEWBOT XII Build

Oh my goodness, a really interesting game which I don't need to convince anyone to like! Oh my goodness, swerve is not a viable drive-train for this game. Guess we'll just need to do something different.

But different is what we do. It's what we are. At least we think so. Time to put that to the test!
