Laura,

That is a shame. But you can have a productive team meeting without
the field kit. For example, it can be very productive to have a
meeting that focuses on robot construction, programming, strategy,
driving, etc., without the distraction of solving the individual table
puzzles. If the team is new, they could begin constructing the robot
or learning to drive it in strategic ways. If they are experienced and
already have a working robot, they could try to knock out their
research project planning.

Good luck getting the kit!
Mike

I am disappointed as I have a team meeting this Saturday- they told me there was nothing I could do. Laura
