Our team was invited to present at the Jr. FLL competition at OMSI on Sunday! We graciously accepted the invitation, as it would be a great way to encourage aspiring "FLLers" to join FLL after their Jr. FLL experience. Mukund, Medini, Suhani, Shaun and Sriya were the team members who went with our coaches to present.
We were able to do great outreach to the future FLL students, and we were able to describe our project and the robot to the various Jr. FLL teams that were there. Mukund went around and also interviewed some teams about their projects. The theme was just like FLL's Nature's Fury theme, it was called "Disaster Blasters". The teams needed to pick a natural disaster to research on and help prevent with a unique solution. There were some very cool projects, like a force field generating LEGO mechanism.
In the end of the competition, we handed out medals to the Jr. FLL teams. It was a fun day for the Jr. FLL teams and the members of the BrickBusters that were there. We were really grateful that we were invited for to showcase FLL at the Jr. FLL competition, and we hope to do outreach like this even after FLL is over.
Thanks, and Go BrickBusters!
