Our team members have been pulled in many directions this summer, with no
opportunity to get the entire team together at once until mid-August.
Regardless, various independent project have been going forward. Much
effort has been devoted to new chassis designs, especially with shifting
transmissions. An FVC team guidance document has been progressing.
Video production techniques have been explored. Also, an NXT Mindstorms
set has been obtained, and training is being developed for the SYRA FLL teams
(and others)!
All these projects, amidst summer camps, summer trips (domestic and
international), family outings, sailing instruction and just plain fun!
