Fall Activities

VEX Robotics Competition

Peachtree Regional VEX Qualifier

The Robo Lions hosted its annual "Robots at the Ridge" VEX Qualifier, and was once again successful at being a great host for attendees. A few months prior to the event, there was concern that the Ridge would not be able to host the Robots at the Ridge, but it was fortunately dispelled.

Teams 675B, 675E, and 5601 won the competition and qualified for the championships.

FIRST Robotics Competition

Game

The 2015 FRC game was Recycle Rush.

Robots

The 2015 robot was Alvin, named after the Gwinnett County Public Schools Superintendent J. Alvin Wilbanks. The Superintendent visited the club during its Sponsor Night, a rare occurrence, which inspired the students to name the robot after him.
