NEW ---- Information regarding the Feb 20th robotics event = it will be an all day activity - going as long as 4pm
I just got this information, below, today-
BEYA will provide a bus which will depart from Western around 6:30 – 7:00am and the bus has a 50 – 52 seat capacity. Both parents and students may ride the bus as long as we don’t go over capacity.
But remember we will probably have around 30 students so it would be approximately 10 parents from each school
The bus will depart the civic center to Western (I think its western high in the city- just off 83 on Cold spring Rd.) right after the awards ceremony around 4:00.
Students will probably get a lunch voucher which they can use with the venders at the conference.
If students want to ride downtown with their parent separately that OK
The part of the conference that will run the Vex contest is open to the public for free.
There will be (what they called a soft start) with the actual contest starting later (My assumption around 9:30).
We will have to register on the Vex website. So if you email me the team numbers I can do that for you. Or if you want to do it yourself, for payment put in send check and it will be handled from there.
Parents, if your situation has changed regarding the Feb 20 event, please contact me. Thank you.
---------------------------------------------
Please email me if your son/daughter cannot make it to one, or both, of the final two events we are scheduled for. I need this information right away. Thank you.

12/11/09 From Mr. Handy, BCPS TE supervisor:
Congratulations to the Excellence Award winner: Team 960A! The trophy will be delivered to the team next week.
Attached is a summary of the award winners for the December 5, 2009, BCPS VEX Challenge. Thank you to all that participated in this tremendous event. We look forward to seeing you on February 27, 2010, at Chesapeake High for the BCPS Secondary STEM fair VEX Challenge.
Saturday Feb 20th - We are invited to a contest at the Black Engineer Conference
at the Baltimore Convention Center.
The Black Engineer of the Year Awards is planning to include a middle school vex robotics contest. This will be free for all your teams and BEYA will provide transportation to the downtown convention center and lunch. Some of the top engineering companies in the nation will be attending and this would be an excellent chance for your students to meet an engineer and learn more about careers in engineering.
Below is the 2008 update to the VEX Inventor's Guide. The Inventor's Guide is provided as a reference guide for all builders using of the VEX Robotics Design System.
