So yesterday Eddie, Elizabeth, Martin, Joach, and I cleaned the robotics room and organized our tools in preparation for build season. Today Ledge took us over to the wood shop room to salvage some old equipment. We tested them as soon as we got upstairs, some were missing pieces and some didn't work.

This weekend the team hosted a regional Lego tournament, where I was one of the eight referee's. The tournament went fairly well over all, there were little complaints. Being a referee is hard work, because of being a referee I started losing my voice. Now onto today's work. Today Dillon, Liz, Eddy, and I made the prop mounts. Making the prop mounts takes a lot of work first we have to mill the piece of aluminum, then we have to thread the top of the aluminum, after we have to find the exact center and drill it.

After we ate we walked back to Monte Vista at the perfect time. At Monte Vista, I helped their presentation and research team, Ricardo worked with the kids on the programming part. Ricardo and the kids were trying to get the "mechanical arm patent" as well as the "Cardiac patch and the pace maker" mission's.

Today Elizabeth, Hugo, Gerardo, Dillon, Mr. Whitley, and I went to the PTDA convention. At the PTDA convention there were around 40-50 business men who we couldn't really get to give us Arizona tax credit, because most of them were from out of state. The group that went had a good time we were demonstrating Heather, surprisingly team 39 was also there. During the demonstration something unexpected happened to one of the vacuums on Heather, unable to figure out the problem we decided to switch to the other vacuum.
