Anti-gravity room

 We all went to the Grand Sierra Resort yesterday and they had this cool room 

where you could bounce and float around. 

Haha, just kidding - this was a sideways room at Sensology in the GSR. So you're actually looking at all these pictures sideways!

Regional Robotics Competition at Galena Highschool

The Virginia City Silver Circuits had a good day at the regional competition today

They did well in the qualifying matches and finished in 4th place. They were chosen as an

alliance partner by the 1st place team, and they went on to win!

The Silver Circuits won the Promote Award, the Inspire Award and the 

Alliance 1st Pick Award.

Carson has put in a lot of time volunteering at matches with

 set up, clean up, being a referee, 

and a mentor to not only the Silver Circuits, 

but also the Perpetual Motion robotics team.
