Wow! Your story is really inspiring. All the information the other coaches have given seems right on the spot. Our team is going to help mentor new coaches this season and in Aug will hold a workshop to help get everyone off to a good start. We live in Ashburn which should be close enough to your home if attend TJ. Send your contact info off line if you want me to add you to the list. One other resource to see would YouTube for robot and research.
Best of luck

In addition, I have already exhausted all of the grant money buying the NXT and registering the team, so if anyone has any fundraising ideas, or extra parts they can donate, that would be fantastic. I am trying to keep the financial burden as low as I can for these kids. These kids all have a real passion for Science and Tech, and I am so greatful i get to help them with that. Thanks so much for your time everyone. This community seems so welcoming, and I am thrilled to be a part of it.
