The Gardiner Lego Robot Team participated in the Lego Robot Track Meet on May 19 in Oakland. They took part in several events, including fastest robot, strongest robot, table clearing robot and slope climbing. They also had an entry in the speed build event.
The team brought home one first-place trophy for table clearing and had the fourth fastest robot in that event.
The team learned a lot about robots, teamwork and sportsmanship.
The team looks forward to the fall Lego Robot Competition and its theme, Into Orbit.
