First Robotics Info Session

July 22, 2021 @ 6:00 pm - 7:30 pm EDT

Free

The Bennington Area Makers (BAM) will host First Robotics teams again this year. We will have an info session at BAM on Thursday 7/22 6:00 – 7:30 PM where team members from last year’s team will dust off the cob webs and get last year’s competition bot back online.  We will discuss the First Tech Challenge which is a chance for “coopertition” (cooperation and competition) in which youth ages 12-18 build and operate a robot to perform a specific set of tasks.  We also plan to have a First Lego Robotics League team this year for younger children. We will have more information on that opportunity shortly.  BAM is located at 239 Main St, Bennington, VT. For more information contact Jackie Kelly (jackiekellyvt@gmail.com, 802-379-4350) or Chris Callahan (chris.callahan@uvm.edu, 802-447-7582 x256).
