Grapevine Public Library Robotics Workshops

Over the 2022 summer, we reached out to the Grapevine Public Library to host a kids' summer robotics program. We met biweekly over the summer for 2-3 months. The sessions consisted of kids building Lego EV3 robots and programming them through games like mazes, a diner dash, various drawing challenges, and a soccer match. We were mainly there to facilitate things and help them out wherever necessary, but the kids were really motivated and seemed to have fun with it.

Before the kickoff of the Power Play season, we teamed up with team 8565 to co-host their annual FLYSET Robotics Workshop. In this workshop, World Championship teams came to discuss their experiences at the Freight Frenzy Worlds, as well as to give technical classes about robot hardware and software. We had over 200 in attendance in-person and over 100 in attendance virtually from 7 different countries.

We cohosted the 2023 9th annual FLYSET FTC Workshop with 8565 Technicbots! All recordings from the Workshop are available on the Technic Bots 8565 YouTube channel!
