Robotics Meeting.

Throughout out this meeting we discussed a few things.
first of all, any one who wants pizza next meeting, need to
bring in $5 or else pizza will not be available to you!
An entry fee is required.... $1 club price.
Next up, we would like to have club t-shirts ordered by Christmas.
Any ideas are welcomed... bring them in next meeting.
Prices are pending.
We 'd like to have some tax credit forms submitted, =) "DO IT" -Mrs. Chapman.
if you need a form pick one up next meeting, or when you have time.
keep in mind that we cant spend more money than what we already have.
Iris needs vendors... she'd like to have people take some candy bars to help her fund raise.
The duckies aren't here yet... =(
"we cannot sell candy on campus during the school day" -Mrs. Chapman.
keep in mind not to jeopardize our club...!
During the meeting we discussed the pointers that the coach from Carl Hayden shared with us.
Briefly, keep our robot simple, stick with the base model and make sure its movable.
Mrs. Chapman showed a video describing the main points of last years competition, just so we get an idea. it's different every year.
Only the top 18 go to the finals.
Each of the officers was assigned to review a section of the competition Manual.

FINANCIAL IDEA *insert spellcheck*

Carbonated beverages (soda) is easy to sell. two quartes will provide profit, and since the school no longer sells soda DEMAND is very HIGH!

The only conflict is location.
If you know how to go through the school system, or a good location to sell soda let the team know.
