Giovanni's Story

Being on the YES Prep Robotics Team 2737 has changed my views completely about robots and what this whole game is about. When you think of robots the image of Iron Man comes up... or Wall-e. The robots that we build are not just some silver metal walking things with arms; they do move, but to complete a specific task.

This is my third year on the team, and I'm growing more and more eager as the day of the competition creeps closer. Each year the group has increased in size and has gotten much closer; we work even better together now than then we first started because of the communications and bonds we've created within the group. It is exciting to see everyone working together day after day; even though some of us get annoyed by one other, we keep moving forward as a team and get the job done as a team. The energy that everyone creates when working encourages us as a group to strive for a chance at victory.

Victory, here we come!


Progress

Hey Everybody!!

We are in the progress of starting the robot. We have 23 days until we ship out! How exciting! We are all working very hard to get this done. Each team has their own goals and working towards achieving them. The Fundraising team has an ongoing project of selling snacks to the teachers. We are in the process of making a website along with this blog. We will keep you updated with all of our progress!(:

Bye!
Team 2737
