$23K!!!

A big thanks to everyone who came out to our MLC Dinner tonight.  Special thanks to the cooks and helpers (Davie Brightbill, Kelly McGrath, Brian Burke, Dave Rothamer, Julie Rogers, Elgin, Pete Broderson) who spent hours upon hours prepping the delicious meal.

The efforts from this event and a recently awarded grant of $2,000 from Consortium for Florida Education Foundation via AT&T, we are excited to announce that we have achieved our fundraising goal of $23,000.  This is just in time for build season beginning in less than a month!  A complete list of our sponsors will be posted on our website very soon.

A big thanks to all of our sponsors and supporters for helping make this happen.  We WILL do you proud at our upcoming competitions!

MLC Dinner Fundraiser Tomorrow!

Hello everyone!
 
We have one last big fundraiser before build season.  Join us on Saturday, December 15th for a gourmet dinner and robot presentation.  Drive the robot and shoot the layup. Then at 6:30 enjoy a fantastic meal by some of the best chefs on the Co-Op served by SAIL robotics team members themselves.

The meal will be 100% vegetarian including the rennet used in the cheese. This is a pasta dinner featuring an Alfredo sauce made by Brian Burke, a traditional sugo (tomato based red sauce) by Davie, pasta, salad, garlic bread and for desert, home made biscotti and coffee or tea.
 
We will ask for a $10 suggested donation. 
 
To students and parents:
We need as many students there as possible in order to make it go smoothly. Students should be at the Miccosukee Land Co-op by 2 pm. The dinner will be starting at 6:30. The dinner will go on until around 8, and then students need to stay and help clean up until around 9. Please RSVP and let us know if you are planning on staying for dinner.

Hope to see you there!
