Our Proggies are still going strong, learning the fundamentals of programming our bots and brainstorming multiple autonomous strats! Rumor has it, the leads are cooking up something interactive for everyone 👀 — stay tuned!
📅 General Meetings: Growing Ideas
Meetings have been solid, but we’d love to see more faces! We’re diving deeper into the design notebook and coming up with plenty of new ideas for the season. If you’re interested in joining or know someone who might, now’s a perfect time!

Resource of the Month
Good news for our Proggies! Check out VEXcode Virtual Robots (VR), a great online simulator created by VEX U Robotics (the official competition folks, not us!).
It’s a fun and easy way to test out autonomous strategies or get comfortable programming bots from home.
While it doesn’t currently support C++, you can still work in Python. And we’re confident our talented Proggies can handle translating between the two languages without a problem ;)
