Last Saturday the Holy Cows hosted FRC teams from all over San Diego County at the annual kickoff event, where FIRST announced the game for this year's competition: Breakaway! Below you can find the game animation, explaining the objective of the game. Good luck, teams!
The Holy Cows will be featured on WealthTV's "Giving Back" tomorrow at 3:30PM PST! Remember to tune-in or set your DVRs!
The Holy Cows were followed through build season, the San Diego Regional and the World Championship by WealthTV's camera crew. The show offers a glimpse at what last season was like for The Holy Cows and what FIRST is about.
This past weekend The Holy Cows volunteered at a FLL tournament in Santa Ana, CA. The Cows ran the judging, ran the tables and helped escort teams to and from their respective pit areas. You can see pictures here.
All the teams did a great job! We would like the thank Lynn Crockett and John Rose for giving us the opportunity to give back to our community.
We had a very busy Saturday last weekend. Many of our juniors and seniors had SATs, the Team San Diego Fall Workshops were held at High Tech High, one of our Seniors was busy mentoring a FLL team at an FLL Qualifier and our team volunteered at the Albert Einstein Academy's Lantern Festival.
The weekend went very well. Jim Beck, our Regional Director said this year there were fewer problems with the Fall Workshops than any other previous year. The Albert Einstein Academy was thrilled with our support and our 2009 robot, Daisy May.
Two of the FIRST LEGO League (FLL) teams we mentored did very well at the Preuss FLL Qualifying Tournament. Brick-Brick-Boom (Explorer Elementary) won the Champions Award, which qualifies them for the December 5th Southern California State Championship. The second FLL team we mentored finished second during robot rounds and are confident they can earn a spot at the State Championship this weekend at their next qualifier tournament.
