Students were challenged to a snowball fight where they had to stack blocks, knock down the opposing team's snow towers, and autonomously clear snowballs from a trench all in four minutes! Additionally, a separate autonomous challenge had students navigate a changing maze and pick up blocks along the way. The team performed admirably, had creative solutions, and got silver!

In this game, students were challenged to harvest "Maple Sap" from a forest of trees... in the form of foam golf balls released from ABS pipe! Once the trees were "Tapped"... (a dowel was pulled to release the balls), coloured balls were sorted by colour and delivered to a "boiler" area and placed on a "snow pile." This was quite the challenge and pushed our students to create some clever solutions!
Game On! Campbell Robotics won 3rd at Saskatchewan Provincial Skills during this exciting game! We even had a ice resurfacing machine autonomous challenge...
