Completed tasks	Bennett and Matt built the 18 x 18 inch sizing cube first. We found the rights nuts and bolts and completed the sizing cube. Daniel put a hub on the other side of the beacon button pressing device. he made a prototype for the pull-up bar arm. he did this by making a piece of plastic with a hook on the end that will, when released, will fling up and grab the bar and then winch up.
Robot improvement	Trevor and Josh worked on making the rescue arm work properly as well as fixing the robot. Josh worked to replace the servo operating the climber arm to a weaker one in order to slow down the rate of the arm through and hopefully make the climber scoring more reliable. He also worked to make sure the servos for the climbers on the hill were in proper resting positions.
