More day 2 of AV Fair.

Didn't update Facebook last season. Who uses Facebook anymore? All the hip kids are on Instagram and Snapchat. Did we update those?

It's a new season. New people. New school site. Time for a new social media push.

We are back!

Some updates:

1. TPAA is dropping from 5 to 4 FTC teams this year and we are running 2 of them. Lots of new excited kids. Several with experience at Team 5012 Gryffingear's summer robotics workshop. Some siblings of alumni. Some friends. Alumni coming back to mentor (and one is going to run Norbots).

2. New team members are already getting into outreach! See the pics from the Antelope Valley Fair this weekend.

3. Season kickoff is September 9th. We will compete in league I, hosted at our school.

4. Parent meeting Thursday August 31st. An email will go out this weekend.

Hope to keep more updates coming this year.
