Robotics is fun and challenging but it is also demanding and expensive. It takes a long time to design and build a good, competitive robot. The best robots have been completely redesigned and rebuilt several times as the year progresses. This year we want to be very clear what we need and expect of anyone who wants to be involved.

Mr. Sawyer's Responsibilities.
I am responsible for organizing the club, scheduling events, fundraising, chaperoning after school and at events. However, it is the students' responsibility to design and build the robots. I can provide some guidance but it would be wrong for me to design their robots for them. I can point to online resources and help with some of the programming issues, but ultimately the club's success depends on the students initiative, perseverance, and willingness to work together.
