Trash Trek Email Blast #2: Mark Your Calendar!! Fantastic Opportunity for FLL teams in Ontario

Hello teams,

I wanted to reach out to you today with a great opportunity for teams in the fall for which you should DEFINITELY mark you calendar!

On Saturday, October 3, we plan on hosting a workshop for teams wanting to learn more about how to find and approach researchers in the field of study for this year, how to find and approach funding sources, how to generate and test initial ideas, and how to actually prototype your solution!  All of this will be discovered as the team works with the experts at the MaRS Discovery District.

Cost is $25/participant if you register before July 1st and there are only 40 seats available so do't delay!!

Please see this flyer for more details on how to register for this exciting event!!

FLL Trash Trek Team Blast #1: FLL's Trash Trek Season Registration is Open!

Hello all coaches from last year's FLL World Class Season!

We have just finished the World Festival in St. Louis and if you follow us on Facebook you would have seen that FLL in Ontario is VERY competitive with FLL across the world.  Check out the story which was posted on April 26th.

OK, now that World Festival is over we are gearing up for the 2015 season - TRASH TREK!!

I'm very excited about this season and think that it will tie in very nicely with all the Eco Schools programs out there!  It's going to be awesome!

If you had a team last year, the process for registering your team should only take a couple of minutes because your profile will carry over and your police check lasts for 3 years!  Yay!

Please head to https://my.usfirst.org/fll/tims/site.lasso, log in, and add/pay for your team for this season and you should be all set!

Don't forget to THEN head over to Spectrum by calling them at 1-800-668-0600 to order your Field Setup Kit (and robot if you want another one).

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask.
