o Robot and Attachments

o USB cable (the one that connects your robot to your laptop) & charging cord for Robot

o Bin to carry your robot & attachments (better safe than sorry), less chance of losing parts or damaging robot if it drops.

o LEGO Parts Kits: You never know when you may need an item to replace/repair/rebuild/change your robot. Maybe another team may need to borrow something (great way to show gracious professionalism).

Each team will designate 2 members to participate in "Opening Ceremonies". The 2 designated team members from all teams, walk in a procession in the Gym).
