A Great Big Congratulations. . .
November 20th, 2006 by SB. . .to the Eaglebots of Eagleville Elementary Charter School, Eagle Wi! The Eaglebots are a US FIRST Lego League team on their maiden voyage, and Holy Heck Grandma, they made it to STATE!
Special thanks to Deb Crane, their mentor, for sending this in, let us know how they do!
FIRST Lego League is the international junior competition for US FIRST (For Recognition In Science and Technology). Teams sign up to build a robot that completes a set of tasks, which change every year. US FIRST high school teams use IFI controllers, regular hardware, and other kit materials to build their machines, and First Lego League uses – oh you clever guessers you – legos.
The Eaglebots had never built a robot for this competition before, but are whacking their way through the competition!
Next time, better, higher, father, and with MORE GIRLS (yeah yeah I know). . .
Do you have a team that doesn’t suck? Send us their adventures!

When I was their age, my legos had to walk seven miles– erm. Sorry, wrong sentiment.
Way to go Eaglebots!

Thank you Simone for sharing our news as well as answering questions about robot building! You have shared so much with us. Im sure you have many of the team members thinking about the different ways a robot can be used!
The team is preparing for State and may I add, having alot of fun in the process! The whole team is sparkling new at this (including the coach!) and we are all learning alot along the way. Thank you ten fold!
