Summer Offseason

For 1747, the summer months are a time to prepare for the next season. Events vary by year, but generally, the team participates in the following:

• Summer Off-season Event - We take last season's robot to an offseason event for fun and practice!

• Leadership Training - The new leadership team has been installed and spends the summer training and planning for the new season.

• Early Rookie Training - We invite eighth graders from Battleground, East Tipp, and Klondike to join our team over the summer and get a head start on learning about our program. 

• Outreach -  The team takes our Public Relations (PR) bots to various events, including the Tippecanoe County 4-H Fair, to teach our area's youth about robotics and Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics (STEAM).

• Projects - The team participates in various internal projects, including cleaning up the build room, preparing PR bots, and preparing for new rookies to arrive in the fall.
