Today was the first day of the long anticipated FTC Competition we hosted here at ISP! Many of you guys hosted people from one of the 11 visiting schools, and hopefully have already made some friends to see again next year.

Today we focussed on finalizing our robot to make it competition ready as well as preparing for judging. Our engineering notebook was due at 9, and it turned out very nice and full of great pictures and information. We later had the judges interview at 11, and we featured representatives from all parts of our team to talk about what they had contributed. Overall, the panel was incredibly impressed, and very interested in our robot. Finally, there was an aspect of comraderie both within the team and throughout all people present, as everyone had been working hard for this weekend for months and months in advance. It was a fun, exciting day for everyone present, and everything went very smoothly. Thank you to everyone for wearing your t shirts and special thanks to Ana, Julia, and Moira for cranking out those buttons!
