Los Altos Robotics FIRST LEGO League
Local Competitions Announcement
Saturday, November 19^th, 1:15-5:30 PM
Multipurpose Rooms at Covington and Oak Avenue Schools

On Saturday, November 19^th, 23 teams of 4^th through 8^th grade Los Altos area students will run their robots against each other to score the most points in the 6^th annual Los Altos Robotics FIRST LEGO League qualifying tournaments. Please drop by to cheer the teams on, watch the fun and consider being part of a Los Altos Robotics FIRST LEGO League (FLL) team next season.

FLL is brought to us by FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) and LEGO® MINDSTORMS. This exciting program introduces kids ages 9-14 to the wonders of science, engineering and technology in a fun and engaging way. The teams design, build and program autonomous robots using the LEGO® MINDSTORMS Robotics Invention System. They run the robots on a 4’ X 8’ “challenge” board designed by FLL using Lego pieces for the structures. This year’s worldwide theme is “Ocean Odyssey” and addresses how robots can be used to tackle challenges of our oceans’ health, biodiversity, and productivity.

The competitions will take place in the Covington and Oak Avenue Schools Multipurpose rooms from 1:15 PM until 5:30 PM. For more information, visit www.LosAltosRobotics.Org or contact Michael Schuh at Michael
