We set up a half of a playing field and had the coachbot and the team bot drive around and pixels were strewn about the area and we had the small bit of rigging and the backboard. We allowed kids to drive around the robots (resulting in minor damage) and informed people about FTC and what it is. 

Pine Tree FRC Competition

We talked about the robots, all of their functions,  the tasks they were supposed to complete, and the competition that it competed in. We showed anyone who was interested how to drive robots, and  kids /other people drove the robots around. We talked to them about FTC and trying to raise interest about it and get some teams going in Maine. 

Corner Point Outreach and Raffle

Meeting goals were to complete a raffle at Corner Point Brewery co. We all made art pieces for an art exhibit. We were supposed to show up, set up and get people to give us money. 

Noble High School Outreach

Keelan was over at the half field watching the children drive the outreach robot, a xrp, and the sphereos. She had to code the robot to go slower for the little kids so they wouldn’t break it. The kids had fun with the sphereos and the outreach robot. XANDER DRESSED UP AS BAYMAX TO BE THE MASCOT OF THE BLUE POTATO LOBSTERS. HE RAN UP TO THE FIELD AND ACTED LIKE BAYMAX. The Lego kids and the other kids in the community loved messing around and learning about FTC. There was also another team that came to visit, the Shapleigh Cyber Sharks.

Berwick Library Outreach

We set up an exhibit where kids could play with legos and build their own robots and code them to do whatever they want them to do. They were mostly ages 4-12 and we got around 195 visitors. We brought a bin of legos, a bin of duplos, 2 spike prime kits, and 2 spike essential kits. The 4 kits were for building the robots. It was overall a huge hit and we will definitely come back.

Lebanon Elementary School Outreach

Payton manned a station where kids could drive around XRP’s with expo markers in them and drive around, drawing in their wake on a large piece of paper. Xander and Carter manned a station where kids could dip a sphero in paint and drive it around on paper inside an enclosed area to reduce the mess. We later made special buttons out of the painted paper to give out to people special to us. Keelan and Sawyer manned a station where the kids could drive Jeff around in a half-field and shoot at various cups and other objects. This was the most popular station and the kids loved the whole experience and even got some stickers and buttons when they were done.
