Over the past few weeks, our team has been hard at work making improvements for the 2024 season. We added carpet tiles to our entire room so we could have a place to test our robot(click this link to know about our process), and we stapled fun FRC sayings to the walls of our room. We've also been conducting many training sessions for our newer students, including CAD and Design training. Our team is excited for the 2024 season and we will continue to get our team in shape for kickoff on January 6th!
