Robofest 2007 Austin Report

Six teams competed at the first Robofest Austin in the Miner's Challenge at Hill Country Middle School last Saturday. All were homeschool teams this year.

We were also honored to have a young vocalist open for us with American, the Beautiful ; and homeschooler & classical guitarist, Thales Smith, perform during our break. Thanks to all our volunteers for helping Kate & I put this together. A special thanks to our judges for all their time, effort, & enthusiasm! We had a great time at the tournament and plan to do it again next year! We plan to do a lot more promotion and feel sure it will grow. I hope more of our homeschool community will come out to support it next year!

The Houston Robofest tournament is April 14th. Registration is open until March 30th. www.robofest.net for more info.
