Teams research the "challenge",  build functioning robots or models and present the findings of their research at Expos (Tournaments).  In our first year in Solon, we had 10 teams and two of the teams advanced to the state competition.

Costs, Teams and Volunteering needs will be discussed.  A coaches workshop will be scheduled.
