Final Announcements

We just completed our last official practice of this semester! Our competition team will be meeting on Friday from 3-5PM and our competition is Saturday from 7:30AM until 4:00PM (approximate end time). We will have a party next week Tuesday at our normal time for all of those who want to attend. I will also give the schedules for the spring at that time. We will do robotics differently in the spring since there is not a competition - all will build and program base robots. So, it should be a lot of fun! We will also only meet every other week.

On Saturday, we welcome all to attend our first ever FNE Robotics competition!

Competition team Announcements:

• Please review your script (you can access it here to print it if you need to) for Friday. You should have your lines memorized.
• We will have practice on Friday from 3-5PM (I'll be there by 2:40PM)
• We no longer need the table to be moved. Ms. Fennewald can handle moving the supplies. Thank you, though, to all who offered.
• Please arrive at Westwood High School (click on that link to get directions) by 7:30AM (doors will not open sooner). You may meet right inside the front entrance by the main office and we will walk together.
• Food - I had originally thought we could pay FNE and then, FNE could write a check for the food, but FNE cannot do that. Therefore, you have two options: one parent pays for it all and the rest reimburse that parent. Or, you can grab concessions early.

I will send out a final announcement on Friday after practice to make sure everyone is ready for Saturday. For now, just plan to show up, play, learn and, of course, have fun!
