New Student Orientation
On August 10, Rahul, Ryan, Bhargav, James, Nihar, Ivan, Isabelle, Sameer, and Mr. B will be there at 7:30am. All flyers, posters, and photo slides must be done by the morning of August 10.
Grants/Outreach
We have to reach out to our sponsors from last year (including Gamma Technologies and United Therapeutics) to thank them and to ask them to continue to sponsor us. We should use the sponsor packet Isabelle has made to reach out to sponsors.
THOR
Positives: We won!!, new members attended and watched, there was a good initial strategy, the new controller worked well, lots of team spirit, learned new positions within the team, never gave up, good involvement, good job new coaches, and team members did well in pit.
Negatives: the pits were too crowded, we need a battery manager (use computer to confirm battery), parts organization, only one driver, there were no scouts, we didn’t queue in time, inspect robot, need to stop making last-minute changes, need to change bumpers faster, need more leadership, we need to be more friendly (gracious professionalism), need to avoid going to the pits after matches, and need more drive knowledge.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
