We are in Pretoria for 3 days conducting a robotics clinic for 11 coaches and their 60+ team members. Yesterday afternoon I worked with the coaches who ranged from 1st-3rd year coaches. Today Hans, Annika, Laurie, Zac, Mark and I spent a whole day with the kids. We did beginning and advanced programming, team building activities, public speaking and project planning, board strategy and building techniques. The kids enjoyed seeing the Techno Travelers robot perform on last year's board as well. Tomorrow morning I have a strategic planning and brainstorming meeting with a combination of coaches, operational partners and the head FLL person here in South Africa.
The kids are enjoying free internet in the hotel, the big breakfasts and hanging out together.
And what a great event this was. I am privileged to have been part of the team who both organized and attended the clinic. WELL DONE!
