We <3 Robots !Every year, loved ones are neglected on February 14th, all in the name of robots. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like to take this opportunity to thank our mentors for working through Valentineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day, and helping us meet our fast-approaching deadline. Their dedication to our team is what make us successful; we surely could not do it without them. So, even more than we love robots, we love our mentors. Thank you!
We Love Our Mentors!! dMO

Week 6: Sir, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m Done
In the last week of build season, we put the finishing touches on the robot, practice driving, and work on autonomous programming. The time constraints are really hitting us hard, and every hour spent is extremely valuable. We have occupied the far third of the field house for practicing, and invited our World Champion Alliance partners, Theory 6 from Mississauga to practice with us. Hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s to making every last moment count!
Engineers of the Week Charles Ju
Charles has done some good work with Arduino programming, and we’re glad to say we’ll have LED lights on the robot. Look out for our fancy light patterns that highlight everything we do!
Nathan Li
Tyler Young
Nathan and Tyler are both Grade 10 members of the Energy Systems Division. With their help, we’ve made one of the neatest electrical boards to date. Thanks guys for taking the time to do things right!
