The Story County 4-H FTC team # 7491, The Robot Corps, will be holding a team open house on Tuesday evening, Jan. 20, at 7 p.m. at Christy Hall/4-H Hall (adjoining the Story County Extension Office in Nevada). We look forward to demonstrating what we’ve been working on during our competition season this year as we prepare for the FTC league tournament on Jan. 24 in Johnston. Come join us, check out our robot, visit with the team members and enjoy some refreshments. FIRST FTC is an international robotics program for youth ages 12-18, which focuses not only on robotics, but “gracious professionalism” at its core.
