DPRG mailing list archives: [DPRG] Possible robotics showcase

Mon Jan 8 12:56:27 CST 2007

Hello all,
     Teen Tech Week is the week of March 3rd through the 10th.  In
conjunction the Allen Public Library's teen services division is
considering hosting a robot showcase (similar to the Tanner's event).
 The showcase would either be in the library's auditorium with the
robots on stage or in the library's courtyard (weather permitting). 
After a short presentation audience members will be invited on stage
to view the robots more closely and for an informal Q&A.

Summary:
- Who (participants): DPRG members and their robots
- Who (audience): Teens (6th grade - 12th grade) and their families (and
other interested parties that notice activity / robots in the courtyard)
- Where: Allen Public Library (Near McDermott and US75 in Allen)
- Google Map:

- When: March 3rd, 2PM
- Why: Show off our 'bots, recruit new members, have some fun

If you'd be interested in participating please e-mail me at
ssumner at cityofallen.org (note -- not the list address) so I can judge the
interest level.  ** This event is not confirmed yet! **  If there's enough
interest then the library will formally schedule it and I'll let everyone
know.

Thanks!
