Team 3295 - Poly Techs is sponsoring their second annual Rookie Kit Bot Build day on Jan 14th 8:30AM-5:00PM in Riverside, CA. See flyer below for more details.

They will have experts from around Southern California to work with the rookie teams to build a working robot from your Kit of Parts. Experts will lead your team through Frame and Drive Train assembly, Electronics mounting and wiring, and Programming. By the end of the day, each team will have built their own working robot.

Lunch will be available for the teams, but the Poly Techs would appreciate whatever donations you can afford to help offset the cost. Some extra materials and tools will be available, but please makd sure you check the attached flyer for what you need to bring.

There are a lot of rookies in Southern California this year, and we want to help you have a successful and competitive season. This is a day you won't want to miss!
