On September 28, the LigerBots went to the RoboBoston event in the Seaport. Many tech companies were there as well as some of our fellow FIRST robotics teams. We were able to compete with other teams in an arena inside the venue and give out our team buttons.

Before the event started, there was a robot block party where all the participating teams took their robots on a trip around a city block. This tradition has become a hallmark of the event!

A big part of this event was spreading awareness about our team. One way we do this is through giving people our handmade buttons. Throughout the day, we worked very hard to make and distribute about 65 buttons. It was a struggle at times but we were able to keep up with the demand.

This was a very successful event as always, and we look forward to more outreach events in the future!   Stay tuned for RiverRage this weekend, October 26-27 and the Pumpkin Smash on November 2.
