The LA Regional

Regional day! It was the culmination of all our efforts and hard work on the robot from the build season, a chance to show what our team is made of, and also a place to finally meet our friends from 8159 Golden Horn in-person for the first time! A birthday celebration for a member on our team and on their team as well kicked off our first lunch together, where all on our team quickly grew close with Team Golden Horn. On the first and second days, we had encountered some mechanical issues on our robot. Happily, the pit crew was able to return it to working order and send it back out to recover the places lost in our absence. In the end, our team was able to make it back to 24th place, finishing off a twenty-place charge to the end of the competition. (Warning in advance: all the photos taken of our team by the professional photographer at the regional are extremely awesome, and as such, there will be many attached to this post :D.)
