On September 21st, 2024, we went to the Lake Lanier Shore Sweep. There, we spent about 3 hours cleaning Lake Lanier. We removed a lot of trash. Things are lighter, jug, wooden planks, large plastic boards (more than 15 pounds), water bottles, plastic bags, small pieces of thin plastic aluminum cans, beer glass bottles, tennis, caps, lots of foam debris, Styrofoam, take-out containers, plastic rings, glass, fishing ball, scarf, giant plastic tank, glass jar, paper plate, cigarette, scrub brush, animal bone, candy wrapper, some sort of chicken liver container, light bulbs.
Our second milestone celebration was the trampoline park. We went to Xtreme Hopp and had so much fun! Unfortunately, we had to leave soon and we were so sad.
On 12/1/2024, we had a Mario Kart Tournament. We also had stuffed animals, but we will not talk about that! The winning team gets a Squishmallow, but the team did not want it.
On Saturday, December 14th, 2024, we had our FLL Regional. It was much, much better than the FLL Scrimmage, because we didn't play video games. We got the Champion Award, and the Robot Performance Award. We were giving out 3D Printed Turtles to other teams and people who came to watch the regional.
Ahh, the end of our first year of FLL. Of course we need a celebration! On Saturday, December 28th, 2024, we had a celebration at Urban Air. Urban Air had trampolines, laser tag, jump-over-the-pole, bumper cars, a zipline, dodgeball, and more!
We went to a senior center to share our joy to seniors. They loved asking Shelldon the turtle AI questions and they also loved the robot dance.
We did our best, and managed to get 490 points max score at our super regional. We won the robot performance award and the champion award, which means we'll make it to state and maybe even world.😁
After the super regional, we went to watch a NBA Game. the two teams were the Atlanta Hawks and the Toronto Raptors. Sadly, the Hawks lost the game and the Raptors won.
A few days after the super regional, we went to Dolvin Elementary School for their STEM Night. One of our members goes to school there, so of course we went. We saw STEM demonstrations, craft tables, and more. We also had our won table where we shared Turtle Life. Overall, we did a lot of things at Stem Night, but sharing the joy of STEM was the most important.
Right after we went to the intro were we learned a lot about ocean exploration, we went against a team called Ghost Nets.
This is our mascot!!!
We won the Champions Award!!!
