If sawdust is man glitter, metal shavings are nerd glitter

My robotics coach, as kiddos used the shop vac on not only the robot, but to clean their clothes in the last half hour of build season

To all the FRC teams

You did it, you made it through the whole six weeks. Now rest, take some time to yourself. Watch a movie, get back into your hobby from last summer, take a nap. Take this time to rest. You deserve it.

Don Bossi at the Seven Rivers Regional in WI!!!!! He came to our pit after our second match and signed our helmets! (COREs drive team (which I’m on!) has safety vests and helmets that we wear to matches)

FRC Detroit Championship Meet-up!

If you’re coming to the FRC Detroit Championship, let’s meet up! Feel free to PM me, we might do a bigger meet up if enough people want to.

I would love to get to know more people from other teams!

(As an aside, if anyone is looking for advice after qualifying, don’t hesitate in reaching out!)

Congrats to the winning teams this week, especially at the Wisconsin Regional!

CORE is looking forward to the Seven Rivers Regional in La Crosse, Wisconsin! (Week 6) We can’t wait to see some teams again, and also see new ones!

Good Luck!!
