Fundraising
Congrats to Cam Nagg for the $250 donation from Conti Testing. Remember that checks are best, but in kind donations of things we can use (like safety gear, raw material, party food) or things we can raffle (like that awesome spa gift basket last year) are also appreciated. Examples of solicitation letters and thank you notes are on the frobotics.org website, under the FORMS tab.


Training
Thanks to Dr. Cala and Mr. Behnke for taking time out of their weekend to teach us project management and LabView programming. We had a good turnout!

Training Tips of the Week:
Programmers – look at the website http://www.LearnNI.com for LabView tutorials
New team members – look at the game rules http://frc-manual.usfirst.org/viewItem/3 and video from last year’s game Aerial Assist to get an idea what info will be released at Kickoff January 3rd. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZT9pIgNOV6ZXH3WmbXEK4bwDuPZcMFF3
