Additional Information
This year we will have a new format. There will be two longer sessions that focus on hands-on experience for the student participants. We will be asking student participants to come with laptops, robot components, and other things that they can work with.
We will be inviting all FRC VEX and FRC teams to participate as much of the information on how to innovate, how to build a drive system, scholarships, project management, and many other topics fit and can help kids for all programs.
