The last two weeks have been extremely productive. Students we were able to work together to successfully get our bot ready for the first friday fundraiser at RR square where we raised about $100.
Miguel has also been rocking the bake sales and we've got about $20 from that in just the first week.
Last week, our newbies came and helped out too. We got our wires cleaned up and organized, our materials ready to build the new crate, loads of sponsorship letters sent out, and alot of good work done on the arm gearbox, wheels, and pneumatics.
We finally made the trip out to JCPenney to show off and received a few donations from their customers while we were there. We just received confirmation from the store manager that they will be returning as a sponsor again this year with a grant of $2000!!!
We have an order in for more safety glasses. This year we're going to have a sign out system to try not to lose any more.
Let's keep it up. There's still alot to work on!
Fundraising remains numero uno in priority. There are lots of grants to fill out, the disc golf tourney and next first friday coming up, and some more events to plan.
Other than that, we can work on fixing up Roger's arm, wheels, and pneumatics. The crate is ready to be built and the cart needs designing. There's so much more, see the "To Do" list on the links page.
