LigerBots to Host FLL Regional Qualifying Tournament at NNHS, Nov. 19

The Newton LigerBots high-school robotics team invites everyone to attend the FIRST LEGO League Regional Qualifying Tournament they will host at Newton North HS on Saturday, November 19, 9AM-3PM.  Admission is free, and all are invited to experience this exciting event.  Thirty-six FLL teams of students in Grades 4-8 from across Massachusetts will compete — not only in robot games, but in solving real-world scientific/technical challenges through research, design, and presentation.  Newton teams include the ‘Botanists, 201504340, the Atomic-bots, Baker Bots, Block Party, Chili Dogs, and maybe more.  There will also be a maker fair with demonstrations and hands-on exhibits.  The LigerBots have been strong supporters of local FLL teams.  See the LigerBots blog post on this event and a Newton TAB article about last year’s tournament.
