Beach Blitz 2017 - and more!
Hello team,
Lots of important information below, be sure to read it all the way thru.
NOTE: We are extending meeting times for this Friday, Saturday, and Sunday to make sure we have enough time to finish the robot for Beach Blitz. We will be loading the trailer for Beach Blitz on Thursday Oct 5th. If you are going to Beach Blitz, I need to know right away. Details below...
Beach Blitz is the premier off-season event in Southern California. Only the best teams are invited and we were honored to be one of 40 teams. It is held at Marina High School in Huntington Beach, CA Oct 6-8. This is a great opportunity for new team members to get the feel for a competition without all the stress of the real competition. I really encourage ALL team members to be there and let the rest of California know that La Sierra High School has the best robotics team!
