FIRST COMPETITION
    In March, we will be competing in a First Robotics competition. Each year First puts on competitions all over the country, and each year a different game is played with the robots. Using the robot we have built in the course of 6 weeks, we will compete with other teams from all over the state and the next weekend we will compete in an Oregon competition in Portland. This year the game requires the robots to grab/lift inner tubes, transport them across the playing field and place them on pegs of various heights. At the end of the game, there is an opportunity to score extra points by deploying a "mini-bot" onto a 10' pole and racing other mini-bots to the top.
