Greetings Friends and followers of The Knights of Alloy Robotics team.

The FIRST robotics season is up and running once again and ADSB's high school competition team is hard at work building this year's robot. Attached, please find our first press release for the season, with updates expected each week for the next few weeks. This year's shipping date (when the robot must be done) is Feb.23rd, so I should have final photos of the robot during that week. Competition dates are Mar.25 to 27 (Waterloo Regional at University of Waterloo), and Mar.31 to Apr.3 (Greater Toronto Regional in Mississauga). Should the team meet with success in either Regional, we could go on to the World Robotics Championships in Atlanta for Apr. 15 to 17th.

Please feel free to contact me at any time at this email address or at my new office phone at 945-7489, and I would be glad to give anyone additional information about this year's competition. If you would like more emails, photos, information or anything else, I am more than happy to relay any and all information that I can. For those interested in this year's actual game, I encourage you to download the game animation from the NASA site (linked in the press release) as it does an excellent job in showing the details for the game (and is also how we were shown the game details ourselves).

EARTHQUAKE IN HAITI

Any students wishing to collect funds on their own will be granted community service hours and the money will be counted as part of the homeroom total.

The homeroom class collecting the most funds will win a pizza or sub party.

Thank you again for your support of this very worthwhile event.

Funds will be sent to UNICEF Canada on behalf of Korah Collegiate

Update: Feb. 2010 During a two-week period, our student body raised almost $1,200 to assist those in need in Haiti. Thank you to our Students’ Council and ISCF club members for their work on this initiative.
