FIRST Robotics Competition Team 238
2017 December Newsletter
During the month of December the team held our Robotic Art show, participated in some volunteer activities and prepped for the upcoming season kickoff happening this Saturday January 6th.
ROBOTIC ART

The Art Show on December 7th had great turnout! In the lobby of the Aviation Museum of New Hampshire, our robot Two-Face greeted our guests as they made their way through the museum to the main room with the wall art and the robot art on display. The wall art was made of different painted components and were back-lit with LEDs. The robotic art pieces were constructed using a moving robotic base, and then were enhanced with a variety of scrap pieces that were painted and designed. Each piece of art was unique and interesting.

The team members helped with guiding guests to where they wanted to go, talked about the process for creating the art pieces and demonstrated to guests how the wall hangings and robots operated. Overall it was a profitable fundraiser and a nice gathering.

Thank you to our event sponsors: Aviation Museum of New Hampshire, IEEE-NH, Sunrise Labs, Macy Industries and to all of you!

FIRST TECH CHALLENGE SCRIMMAGE

We were invited to help out at one of our local FTC Scrimmage events. It was a pretty fun day as we were resetting the field, checking teams in, and helping some teams perform at their best. We hope all the teams that attended this event do well with the rest of their seasons.

KICKOFF PREPARATION

As Kickoff approaches we prepared a bit so we can start off as smoothly as possible. One of the biggest things we did was set the goals for the oncoming season, and once again we plan to go very far. Another preparation was setting guidelines for how we want to set up some of the more basic / non game specific functions of our bot.
