Downingtown Area Robotics (home of Team Sab-BOT-age) moves, reorganizes, grows

Well, it is that time of year again and the FLL 2018 game, Into Orbit will be announced in a little over a week. We have a tentative schedule for getting started that I wanted to share with everyone so you could make your August plans without conflicts.

This year we will be holding two Open House events to get everyone familiar with the program and provide a glimpse into the world of FLL and Lego Robotics. We would like everyone to attend one of these events especially if you have not participated in FLL before. For those returning, it will give you an opportunity to see our new facility and meet some of the new participants. The week after the open house events, we will be have two Parent/Student meetings for those expecting to participate this year. Please plan to attend one of these meetings. We will outline the season and discuss expectations and requirements along with a meet & greet for the kids. Finally, we will have a Coach Training session for those interested in coaching a team. It is important that coaches attend as this will provide an appropriate foundation for you and your team. Finally, the season will start on Tuesday, August 28.

Here are the dates (times to be determined):

FLL Open House - Saturday 8/11/2018 FLL Open House - Sunday 8/12/2018 Parent/Student Meeting - Tuesday 8/14/2018 – 6:30p Parent/Student Meeting - Saturday 8/18/2018 – 10:00a FLL Coach Training - Saturday 8/25/2018 FLL Season Start - Tuesday 8/28/2018 – 6:30-8:30p

Regular meetings will be Tuesday and Friday evenings from 6:30-8:30p.

Please let me know if you have any comments or concerns. We look forward to see everyone soon!
