             Have you ever wondered what CVC Robotics is? Well here is your chance to find out. CVC Robotics is a club for 6th, 7th, and 8th graders. There are two teams of seventh and eighth graders and two teams of sixth graders. The first team is called team 1 and the second team is called team 2.

             Each year there is a mission for the teams to do. This year, the mission is called Power Puzzle. Each team builds a robot and programs it to do things required for the mission. Things such as putting a solar panel on the roof of a house, moving a dam to stop a flood, placing wind turbines in the correct spot, etc.

              In robotics, there are more things to do than just  building and programming robots. There is someone in charge of research, strategy, the project, marketing, documenting, and team spirit.
