We should receive the kits soon. Remember, the road to success . . . is always under construction! Due for meeting on Sunday, February 30th (meeting time 2-4:00pm, due to the Super Bowl!) Print out and scan this guide - Programming Reference Guide Print out and scan this guide - Default S/W Reference Guide Also, review the portions of the FIRST Robovation - Tutorial that concern C programming. Mr. Czik will start to tutor us all in C coding during this coming meeting. Please have these references printed and with you. Familiarizing yourself with them will be helpful, but we do not expect them to be clear without instruction. We already have a base program in C to start from. We will need to modify this to meet the challenge as it is released in mid-February, so we will all learn to do this. It should be an interesting challenge! Mark Twain wrote : "The secret of getting ahead is getting started. The secret of getting started is breaking your complex overwhelming tasks into small manageable tasks, and then starting on the first one." And we don't even have any overwhelming tasks! Life is good!

I am confident that you will all continue to accomplish great things this season!
