On behalf of FIRST Team 2130, we are pleased to
announce that we are getting an early start to
the 2014 season. We are looking forward to a
great, and productive year.
This year we have approximately 30 dedicated
students and 12 mentors who are happy to be a
part of our team.
We would like to invite you to the kickoff for
this season, which will be at 9 a.m. January 4,
atin Mr. Ed Katz's classroom at Bonners Ferry
High School.
Last year's game, Ultimate Ascent, was a
competition in which robots had to launch
Frisbees toward goals to score points. Last year
we attended the Autodesk Oregon Regional in
Portland, and the Spokane Regional in Cheney.
In Portland, we ranked sixth out of 59 different
teams, and our lead mentor, Ed Katz, won the
Woodie Flowers Award for outstanding
mentor-ship.
In Cheney, we ranked first out of 32 teams, and
we won the Engineering Inspiration Award, which
earned us a seat at the Championships in St.
Louis. We played in the Curie Division and
placed 52nd out of 100.
With all the success we have had over the
previous year, we would ask you to consider
becoming a part of our financial support team.
Any amount donated would be greatly appreciated.
Checks may be made out to FIRST Team 2130 and
sent to Bonners Ferry High School, 6485 Tamarack
Lane, Bonners Ferry, ID 83805.
Thank you for considering becoming a part of
this year's robotics team!
If you have any questions or would like to learn
more feel free to contact Ed Katz at Bonners
Ferry High school (208) 267-3149. |
