Report
The Channel Cats and
the 2007 robot "Nässen Macher" (makers wet) had a GREAT showing
at the St. Louis Regional Competition! We made a lot of new
friends and had a wonderful time. We made it into the Semi
Finals and missed a chance at going to the finals literally by a
thread.
No Matter! We achieved our goals which were to spread the word
of FIRST and have a great time doing it!
Our matching hats, pits and orange enthusiasm earned us the
Imagery award for the second year in a row. The "Catfish Kid"
was present doing all the usual dances with the other mascots.
Our Autodesk animation entry graced the big screen along with
the others.
We would like to thank all the volunteers, judges,
referees, FIRST teams, and all the crazy fans.
Look for us at the IRI later this year!

Right after the FIRST Kickoff a number of our catfish made their way up
river to ITT Technical Institute in Earth City for a grand tour and the
presentation of a $2,000 check.
Thank you ITT! We enjoyed the tour
and I think we may have opened a few eyes to your exceptional
educational opportunities.
Without your support we couldn't exist!

January 4th, 2007
Our weekly meeting at 7pm on January 4th will be a reception, as we've
had a number of new members joining the RCR organization. Our goal is
to introduce our new members and their families to the exciting world of
Robotics at RCR. We will a have season overview that will go through
"what to expect" in the upcoming season and competition(s). We will also
touch on fundraising, our sponsors, FIRST awards (ones we have & ones we
want), opportunities for volunteer help, and all the wonderful
opportunities FIRST and RCR are offering area hi-tech kids. All the new
members and their families are encouraged to join us at
RCR headquaters.

The 2006 RCR robot, Hunter, and the 2005, Lone Lemming, made their
appearance at the
St. Peters Comedy Forum last Thursday. The benefit was put on by
Bill Davis and his comedian friends. The benefit was a great success
that we hope to duplicate in years to come. Many thanks to Bill and the
Comedy Forum for doing this for us. Without support like this we could
grow within our organization goals!
