We presented our research project at the downtown library. We put up fliers around town and it was in the local newspaper. We took our Climate Connections challenge table and set it up there in their big meeting room, along with our research project presentation. About fifty people were there and we talked about FLL and demonstrated our robot on the challenge table. We did our skit that we've rehearsed for our research project and encouraged the people in the audience to ask questions.
Lots of kids were there who were interested in the robots, so hopefully we will get some more interested in FLL for next year.
As part of our research project, we're encouraging people to start growing their own food at home. So we gave out buckets and filled them with dirt and gave out seeds so that people could start their own vegetable gardens. Our local recycling agency (BRING Recycling) gave us buckets plus we asked around and got some from our neighbors. Lane Forest Products and Rexius donated the gardening soil, and Territorial Seed company donated seeds.
