Our Bot Brawl and Build Sessions are designed to be fun and induce us to build hobby robots. The competitions are held in the morning, with trophies awarded to the top three competitors in each event and congratulations awarded to all the competitors. The Build Session is held in the afternoon. This is a time to work on bots and talk bots and generate fantastical ideas for bots.
We request that people let us know at least two weeks beforehand of what events they plan to enter. If you are not certain you will be ready in time, let us know anyways of your hopes to compete so we can plan accordingly. Do this by emailing Bruce at president@circpeoria. Thank you.
The cost to enter is $10 per bot per event to be paid at check-in. Lunch will be ordered from a local restaurant and a donation jar will be used to cover the cost for those interested. The location will be the clubhouse at Izaak Walton Lake on 725 Seven Hills Road, Metamora, Illinois. Visitors are welcome and there will be no cost to watch.
These competitions will be run with the emphasis on comradery, learning, and the general enjoyment of hobby robotics.
If you have questions or suggestions, email Bruce at president@circpeoria.org.
