Beach City Robotics, a team from two Long Beach area High Schools
(Redondo Union, & Mira Costa), of which I am an insignificant part, won
the SoCal competition last week-end, in San Diego.

Ten days hence the regional Finals take place in Long Beach.

Google "FIRST + Robotics competition" for more information.
