Hey guys, hope you are having a good weekend.

On Tuesday December 27 and Friday December 30, from 11AM to 2PM, Spartronics is hosting some fun workshops for kids at the Bainbridge Island Museum of Art (BIMA). They are super easy and require no mechanical knowledge. If you want to sign up to help out, fill out this form here: https://goo.gl/forms/C1bl5FqRTgX2T8Wq2

We only need 3 or so people per day, but there is a background check form that needs to be filled out by October 31 if you want to participate. The link to the form with instructions is in the form. Let us know if you want to help out ASAP

Yo some of you guys still haven’t joined any other slack channels besides your subteam. And it shouldn’t be that way! Everyone should have an idea of what the other subteams are up to so you can a) stay informed and b) point out to them (kindly) if their idea creates a conflict or issue with your own subteams work.

Here is a list of the slack channels EVERYONE should join:
#engineering
#marketing
#programming
#electronic-pneumatics
#strategy

There are also several optional channels that you should also join just because they are fun or useful:
#random (for random discussions, anything goes but keep in mind Coach Chee is watching so keep it clean. No politics. FRC memes welcome)
#C2CPRJ87M (an RSS feed from the FRC blog, also used for general discussion of the organization, scholarships available from them etc)

#slack_help (this one is really mandatory, if you have ANY questions regarding the usage of slack hit us up here)
Also if you have a complaint or question regarding slack we can’t answer, you can go DM <@assets/img/USLACKBOT> `/feedback [your issue]` to send a message to the devs

If you still don’t know how to join channels, it is easy! Just click the little “+" button in the sidebar at the top right side of the “Channels” section. If you still have trouble hit us up in #slack-help and we can walk you through it. Be sure to click the “Join Channel” button at the bottom once you select if from the channels, otherwise you won’t stay there).

Also you can mute notifications for any channel by going to the channel settings (the gear at the top of the screen on your computer) and choose notification preferences. NEVER mute a channel completely, but you can stop push notifications for anything but mentions of your name. For example, Coach probably just selected that for the #random channel when @Rose Bandrowski and I spent 10 minutes talking about Amstud tutorials.

You should not change the notification settings for your own subteam channel and #announcements just because those are important.

General notice: Coach Chee + all the mentors are in every public channel, so keep that in mind when you post. Just an FYI. If you have something that you wouldn’t want them to see keep it out of Slack

Here is how to size a motor that is from Skunkworks

Lockers will thank you :)

Hey everyone! We have some very important meetings coming up this week in preparation for the Auburn competition this weekend. Tomorrow right after school: All students must attend in order to be briefed on scouting, need-to-know information about our team and robot, and pit etiquette (about 3-4:30pm). Meanwhile, our gear subsystem group will be unbagging the robot to finish up attaching our new gear grabber. Right after the scouting portion ends, programmers will have access to the second robot for testing. Wednesday right after school (about 3-5): We need to start packing up our spare parts, marketing materials, tools, etc. so that Thursday we can load the trailer (3-4:30)!

Quick reminder: Everyone needs to be at the meeting from 3-4:30 today to talk about scouting! If you are working on the gear grabber, programming, or marketing then you will be staying later.

Here's that scouting presentation from today's meeting - please be sure to check out the information sheets on the last slide, especially if you missed the meeting today. https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1pkGdF4vvQa9COhXwS7qDiBIhCFYkxO8xER1Or0WM

Great job tonight students and mentors . Over 400 people showed up. Get some rest and see you all on Sun from 1 to 6 pm .

http://www.geekwire.com/2017/binnur-al-kazily/

team, I am very humbled! thank you!

We are very PROUD - and so lucky/blessed to have you!

GO BINNUR !!!!!

Great job today team ! HELIOS is back to usual. Tues 3/21 we are meeting from 3 to 6:30 ish. Programmers will have the robot for 2 hrs and the rest of the team will be packing the trailer. Not everyone will need to stay till 6:30 pm. We also need a new scouting sheet.

Hey all - brief announcement from your head scouts @Ethan Rininger and @Jack Stratton

For Glacier Peak we will be demoing a new method of scouting - instead of messing around with paper sheets we will be using SpeedScout17 (https://itunes.apple.com/US/app/id1207584502?mt=8 and https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=dkt01.speedscout17&hl=en). The base method remains the same - the only difference is instead of sheets we use this.

Data is compiled afterwards at the hotel - the app stores the data on the device it is installed on and can then easily be exported via .csv files and placed into a spreadsheet via a script. Comments are placed in manually based off of a physical comment sheet - the only piece of paper we will use.

This decision was made to save Jack, and Ethan time entering the datat into sheets, as well as providing more reliable data collection.

For any questions hit up #strategy

If you are going to Cheney with mentors or I , please give me check by Mon. 3/27 , 12 noon. Thanks

We need two volunteers to help out at the safety glasses station tomorrow at 11-12! Please send me a message if you're interested.

Also: if you want updates from the field team at Glacier Peak, text FRCGPK to 84483!

Hey Spartronics! Congratulations on Worlds and another great season!
BOEING is once again hosting an Earth Day work party at IslandWood this Saturday, April 29th, 9am-12pm, and we would love to have Spartronics help again this year. We’ll be doing some trail maintenance and invasive plant removal to enhance storm water management. You’ll get a free lunch and tee-shirt, plus earn 3 hours of community service (good for NHS)! Please let me know as soon as possible if you are interested in helping out. Thanks! - John Sachs

Please let John Sachs know .

ALERT !!!!

We are changing the end of the year celebration form Sat. May 20 to Sun May 21st.

Same time (4-8 pm) and place .

Sorry for the inconvinence. Something came up on Sat. that I cannot make it.

I hope all can still come.

Reminder: Leadership meeting this Wed. May 3rd from 3 to 4:30 pm. If you wish to be in leadership next year (17-18) please attend this meeting.

Hey everybody! This has been such a great season, but next year we want to do even better - to do this, we need everyone’s help. Please take a few minutes to anonymously share your feedback about the year. This means students AND mentors. Please fill out this survey by Wednesday, May 10th so the upcoming leadership team can start planning and putting your thoughts into action. Thanks! https://goo.gl/forms/VvusBHl8Cnxwio0G3

ANNOUNCEMENT FOR MENTORS
Now that the 2017-18 captains have been chosen, if any mentors wish to be added to the captains slack channel message me and I will add you

For students
If you are interested in helping promote Spartronics to the incoming freshman by representing us this coming Tuesday and Wednesday at break DM me for details. We are looking for 5-6 students

FOR STUDENTS:
I’m looking to see if anyone is interested in doing at internship at foundry10 this summer. It is paid, and we would be working on introducing Synthesis (an Autodesk program) into Virtual Reality. 20 hours a week.
They give priority to group of people working on a project rather than one, so contact me if you are interested. FYI it is in Seattle, so there would be a commute involved (it’s manageable). I'd appreciate a confirmed response by Monday night

As many of you know, the end of the year party at Strawberry Hill (5/21) is coming up and we hope that all of you can join us to celebrate the achievements of the team this year. The link below is to a SignUpGenius survey for all of you to fill out. Please fill out the survey as soon as possible, so we can plan accordingly (the latest is 5/20, but don't wait that long!). Feel free to invite family members too.

Hey guys, we have two days at BIMA this summer that we're doing a workshop. Friday, July 28, and and Friday, August 25 (both days are 10am to 3pm). We need a few volunteers to attend so send me an email () if you can make both or either days. Thanks.

Kudos to everyone who helped out at the Rotary Auction yesterday, with special props to those working in the "Pit" until 6:30 pm last night, completely filling a semi-truck destined for Value Village and not landfill. cruz_strom arrived a little late as he got stuck running an entire department, and despite the 12 hours for more than week working the auction, I think everyone who worked with Cruz yesterday will tell you he probably worked harder than anyone. He stayed in the truck nearly the entire time -- and it was hot! --packing it as tight as possible. In this photo, the truck is only 1/3rd full, stacked with bags of clothes and shoes. We later would add hundreds of pieces of luggage and then boxes and boxes filled to the brim and finally a plethora of children's toys. Not once did any Spartronics teammate complain or gripe or whine. Our two teams only took three 5-minute breaks in 4 1/2 hours. We also dismantled dozens of 8x4 foot tables, removed the metal pipe legs, then carried and stacked them into 3-foot piles of plywood in the hot sun. The other Spartronics team, lead by Spartronics alumni and UW junior Korey Hawkins (your first Rules Master) worked for hours in the Garden Supplies area on cleanup and taking down fences. As a Mentor, I could not have been more proud of every single student. I will find a way to personally say thanks because ALL of you went well above and beyond the call of duty on this volunteer task - and you did it with such class.I know that Bill's team and my team had a blast despite the incredibly hard work. Sorry that you may have only got a single slice of pizza for dinner or no dinner! Rotary will fix that, I was assured - but you should all be very proud of what you did for your community. And just think how many families will benefit from all the things that were in that TRUCK! This is also one for our Chairman's book.

Coming up on Wednesday evening is the Women in STEM forum at the Museum of Flight in Seattle. This event is intended for female FRC and FTC team members to come get aquainted with the STEM community in Washington state's aerospace community. It has been organized by one of our FIRST Alumni who is interning at Stratolaunch here in Seattle. This is a great networking opportunity for all of our teams! Register right away at https://goo.gl/forms/gMXrCrUaIQs3PdmU2

Any girls planning on being apart of girls generation I would like to meet Friday before or after school (whatever works better for you) to discuss a recruitment plan. Slack me what time works better for you. If you cannot make it, don't worry.

2018 FRC Teaser: https://www.firstinspires.org/2018-frc-teaser
Things are looking pixelated.

For those who can meet tomorrow morning to talk about girls generation recruitment, I'll be in the library at 8:20 before school. If any of the guys want to participate in this, feel free to come.

Reminder. Please do application for robotics if you are planning to be on the team this year. It is required for old and new members. It is due Mon. 9/18. See my website for electronic application.

If you are not planning to do robotics this year 17-18, please let me know so I can remove you from Slack.

Hey everyone,
Great job and I hope everyone had phun this weekend. Thank you mentors !! This team would not be successful without all your effort and help.

Great news . Jack Chapman's dad (Paul Chapman ) will tow our trailer to GP.

Here is a recent article in the BI Review about our upcoming open house: http://www.bainbridgereview.com/news/robotics-open-house-at-bhs-coming-soon/

Be sure to share with friends and family!

Okay guys I’m sure you’ve noticed my absence. I’ve come down with mono, and there’s a chance I had it at Mount Vernon and gave it to some people. I want you all to make sure you’re taking care of your health as this is really not something you want. It can be dormant for a while as well, so you may not feel the affects for a good amount of time. Overall, don’t push yourself too hard, stay healthy.

:disappointed: sorry to hear that — hope you bounce back quickly

Thanks B, imma try my best.

from @Mike Rosen (also on the random channel)
This year's batch of scholarship application is due this Friday. I've sat on this committee before, read the applications before and interviewed the candidates before. I'm telling you, if you're reading this you've got a fighting chance at a scholarship. That's doubly true if you're considering NOT going to university straight away but are looking a career or technical -- pay lots of attention to that "Career / Technical Education Scholarship"

The application forms are on the Rotary Web site and are due this Friday. Thinks it's to late and this is too last minute? I've read the applications from the folks before you. I've heard from the committee members this year. You are not too late, right now. But you will be on Saturday.

http://www.bainbridgeislandrotary.org/

Please, tag friends here or copy, and forward to friends elsewhere.

And, needless to say, if you've got questions or concerns, feel free to hit me up here or fb or text 206 550 6241.

For Open House, don't forget your team shirt and name tags ! Mentors are welcome to join us at the open house.

Please remember to wear your team gear to school on Friday.

Match schedule for Glacier Peak

did you forget to post or just juggling priorities?

Pizza is ready for the mentors and overnighters

Great job team at GP !!!! We did not do as well as we wanted at GP, but we tried our best, had phun, and have enough points for Portland. It won't be official till Sunday night 4/1 Easter.

Required team meeting on Thurs. March 29th (3:15 -4 :00 pm) for those going to Portland and those wishing to attend Worlds .

As you all probably know, we’ve been working on an upgrade to the harvester/grabber system on the robot from before Glacier Peak and we are now continuing to work on it in hopes of getting it done for Portland.
As of the Monday before Glacier Peak the initial idea put forward by Marc Tarlton was determined to be unusable in the time frame that we had. A group of mechanics met on the Tuesday and Wednesday of that week to try and get the integrated harvester grabber system (HG system) that was initially designed by Paul. We were unable to get the HG system reasonably functional before Glacier Peak, resulting in the slightly modified Harvester/Grabber used at Glacier Peak.

On the Monday after Glacier Peak there was a meeting that determined that we need to produce a different Harvester/Grabber in order to be competitive at Portland and do well enough to get to worlds. We have been looking at other team’s grabbing systems, resulting in the modified form of the HG system that is currently on the intake/grabber channel.

We will be finishing HG system today at a meeting after school, and then using Thursday and Friday for debugging. Unless the HG system is completely unusable at the end of this week, we will be mounting it on the robot at Portland, and taking our chances with it.

However, we will keep the current system together as a back up plan, if we cannot get the HG system to work.

As of Wednesday morning we still have to do:
Mechanically:
Mount the Pneumatic cylinder and then create a linkage so that the arms will move together.
Place elastics on the grabber to let the linear actuator rotate the grabber.
Adjust tension on the scissor lift elastics to get the scissor lift to go up with the new load.
Experiment and modify as needed

Electronically:
Set up an extra solenoid (already on the robot) to produce the floating effect

Programming:
Get the new code set up (Declan placed this as 3 hours, but we can do some testing with the current setup)

We will also be looking to place a camera somewhere on this system, but getting the system fully functional will be the top priority.

We will be meeting after school for the next three days to try and produce a functional HG System, but Friday is our current deadline, as we cannot meet on the weekend (conflicts)

Currently we do not need more people to work on this, but we will be asking for people to show up if we need extra help.

For those going to Portland, we will be giving an update on the meeting Thursday

Congrats team !!!! We are ranked 29 out of 154 teams in the NW. We have officially qualified to the District Championship at Portland. Great job team.

I have some sad news , I just drove by the trailer and the trailer was broken into . The robot and tools are missing . We need to meet asap to figure out what to do .

How about some good news? Bainbridge Review published your Captains Letter to the Editor thanking our community for the Open House https://www.bainbridgereview.com/letters/spartronics-grateful-for-community-support-letter-to-the-editor/

For tomorrow morning everyone is on their own for breakfast. You must be at the event center at 7:45am. If you are going to get breakfast make sure you have a buddy

For those students coming down today from BI, please slack me when you get here so I can give you a wrist band that will allow you to enter the arena with your luggage .

Folks at Portland there is a subway 5 min . From event for lunch .

Change in plan . The 3 cars coming down . Please meet me at hotel at 1 pm .

Dinner tonight is at Liberty Glass

938 North Cook Street

Should be a 20 minute walk

Y’all are on your own for breakfast, meet at the event at 7:45

Voodoo donuts in the lobby tonight . Please pick up .

When the donuts (and after Portland) wear off...

https://breakthroughjuniorchallenge.org/

Go for it!

Not the best start , but the robot looked promising after our last practice match at 7:45 pm . Let's continue to work hard and do our best . 6 matches on Friday that look promising . Keep scouting team !

In the event of an emergency at District please meet outside where we were hanging out on Wed . Afternoon . For those who were not here please ask someone on the team to show you.

For graduating seniors, make sure to put your name and contact in FIRST’s form at the PIT ADMINISTRATION. You will also receive a first alumni patch

If you are not not needed in the pit, meet Charlotte at the stands by 6:05 to leave for dinner

Dinner is a the Red Robin by the hotel

For those of you who went with Randy, Chee or Paul, meet at 7:30 at the hotel to load luggage. The rest of you will have to bring it to the event to load

For all of you guys heading back to Bainbridge right now, when you do get back have someone from each car slack Coach you guys made it home safe. Thanks

I hope you all had phun at Portland. We tried our best and gave it our all. You all should be proud of your achievement on the team.

On Mon. 4/9 right after school 1:45 pm we need to unload the trailer. Please swing by for about 15 minutes to help. Thanks

Also please swing by on Mon. so I can return your $600 deposit. A couple of you still need owe me money for Portland. Please give me on Mon.

For those getting credit for robotics, please also give me your engineering book by Thurs 4/12. I have changed the date from 4/9 to 4/12.

Mentors and students,

Please do the following survey that Chris our mentor has put together. It will help us plan and develop classes at BARN that will help our team.


https://goo.gl/forms/iynyrbdz0OGS2yHG2


Thanks

Just to clarify . Please do survey only if you plan to participate at the Barn this summer .

All -- w/ @Kevin Hawkins we are kick starting an effort to update Atlas for events & parades. From schedule wise, it will mostly be done on the weekends from the Al-Kazily home. Goal is to get an updated ATLaS by mid-June, before the July 4th parade . Project plan includes:
migrate code to roborio
bling it up
add a 2nd battery
fix any structural stuff
add redundant sensors for robustness
add safety/convenience features
If you are interested, please join the #atlas-restoration channel. I will be doing a kick-off in the next week or so.

Reminder, Leadership team meeting on Thurs. 4/19 from 3:15 to 4:30 pm. We have lots to do.

Message from @Harper Nalley:

Hello team! We have been invited to volunteer at a work party hosted by Boeing at Islandwood. We will be helping perform trail maintenance on Saturday, the 28th of April from 9:00am to 12:00pm. You will recieve a free lunch, free shirt (yay!), free tour of the site, and earn three hours of community service. On top of that you will be affording yourself an opportunity to meet people at Boeing, make connections, and make yourself known. If you are willing and able, email John Sachs () and C.C. Mr. Chee. Also notify either Kaedric Holt, Chris Mentzer, or myself (Lucas Nalley) over Slack so the three of us can keep track of whose going.

Small update to the previous message about earth day, the event is next Saturday not Sunday. The message has been edited to reflect that

Hey guys! 4911 is hosting a classic rock concert on may 11th as a fundraiser CyberKnights Uganda. They plan to raise enough money to get them a lab! I’ve been informed its not strictly robotics.

Did someone try to log into our Spartronics Gmail account today ? I got for 4 warnings about 4 different devices. Please DM to me about this . Google is asking that I verfiy these log-ins today. Thanks

In regards to the Cyberknights event next Friday May 11, if anyone wants to go let me know. I plan on going and if anyone else would like to go we could collaborate and drive there together.

Our mentor Chris has been working with BARN to create several classes during the off season, and he's scheduled one on May 21 6-9pm on basic machine practices and layout. This class is for mechanics, or anyone who is interested in becoming a mechanic. The survey contains more information about the class and registering.
The class only has room for ten people, so the first 10 people to complete the survey will take the class. https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSedWLGtDQLSnP7B3P8E9-0Wm4eUxX7ucnet16Lk68qxgCS19Q/viewform?usp=sflink
We will contact you later about who's going.
The people at BARN are very excited to be working with us, and are interested in helping us in the future.

The end of year party is coming up and we hope all of you can make it to our fun retrospective event to celebrate all of the things we did this year, to thank all of the mentors that have helped us along to the season, and send off the current seniors. The party is at Strawberry Hill park on 5/20 from 4-8pm. Similar to how we ran the beginning of the year party at Fay Bainbridge, we need all of you to bring one item of food. Please do this survey linked below to say what you are bring and see what others will be bringing. Please do the survey as soon as possible to let us know ahead of time how many people will be coming. Feel free to invite family members too. We hope to see you all there.

Thank you

For the BARN workshop I still have 8 open spots for people. The people at BARN are really excited about having us there, so if you’re interested please sign up. The class really does give a clear explanation of how to approach machining and drawing that team really doesn’t do all that well.

I didn’t make this clear when I made my first announcement, but I want the sign up genius done by 5/16, so everyone has a final count on how many people will be coming to the party. Also mentors don’t have to bring food, but can of course. Please only do one signup per family too please. Thank you and let’s get it filled out.

Binnur, could you post to announcements:

At the season celebration today, someone left potato salad in a blue tupperware container. Please PM @Mike Rosen if it was you.

From Lucas Nalley:
Hello team,

From Kevin Hawkin : Tonight's Bond meeting 11/27/18

Our Sponsor Jason Shutt very much wants us to help craft a student created video to be used on social media to support this new bond.

I do not see this as a difficult project, nor does it need to be a time consuming one. I can help limit that.

I REALLY need someone to step up and attend the meeting tonight at OfficeXpats, 2nd level of the movie theater tonight with me. It's just 90 min and I am happy to pick up and drop off it that helps make it happen. I can even limit the time commitment to 1 hour of they have their own transportation.

Meeting time is 6-7:30 pm.

Please respond to Kevin Hawkin in Slack or by email.

Lucas Nalley has stepped up So we have a student volunteer for tonight’s meeting. Thank you Lucas!

Please complete these surveys as soon as possible.
This survey is for our team meeting on December 12th. Due December 9th

A message from @Terry Shields about the FLL event yesterday!

I just want thank the entire SPARTRONICS team for putting on a wonderful FLL tournament yesterday. My team parents really appreciated the personal touches like escorting the teams to and from their judging rooms, answering questions, and showing general interest in how the kiddos were doing. You kept the tournament on schedule and made the entire day a learning experience for all.

It was interesting to witness SPARTRONICS from the outside for a day. And you know what? It’s just like the way I view SPARTRONICS when I’m on the inside - a dedicated group of individuals who think, anticipate and work as a team. I couldn’t have been more proud to say I’m a small part of this group.

And yes, that was my wife wearing the spacesuit and helmet all day long. I think we got ourselves a prop for our upcoming FRC tournaments!

Happy Holiday Team !!! See you at our 1st meeting for the year 2019 on Wed. 1/2/19. Survey will be going out soon from your captains.

Hi team! We're looking for a one or two people to volunteer at the BIMA Art in Action workshops during the break. We're doing soft circuits (setting up circuits with LEDs, watch batteries, and conductive tape) one day and kinetic sculptures the other day (make things that move with small gears). It's a great way for the team to do community outreach (and we get BIMA as a sponsor). No previous experience (or subteam affiliation) is needed.

Send me a direct message if you can come on December 21st from 10am—3pm, or December 28th 10am—3pm. Thanks!

Hey team! On kickoff, myself, @Kevin Hawkins and one new freshman or sophomore will be going to Mountlake Terrace for their kickoff, we will then pick up the kit of parts and get back home to join the team for the rest of kickoff. If any freshman or new sophomores are interested in joining us please dm me as soon as you can. Thanks everyone!

Hello !

In the next two meetings we're going to practice our plans for kickoff (and the days that follow) using a past FRC game. We call this a mock kickoff.

To prepare, you should review a couple of game animations (linked below), and this high-level flow: https://docs.google.com/drawings/d/1jhNLNq6aL0sS4i5NMnSsRsU4gWYrVanQ-GiwjgdLCQ/edit

That flow details the plan we will follow the week of the kickoff. For the mock kickoff, we will follow a stripped-down version of the first two days of that flow.

Other than the above link, also be sure to watch these three past FRC game animations:

The survey is due at 8:00 pm on 1/7 Monday.
