The Mid America Air museum hosted the Annual Kansas Southwest Region First Lego League Championship. The event will took place Saturday, March 25th.
Teams from Oklahoma, Kansas, Colorado, and Texas competed in this Robotics Competition. During the morning hours, the teams made presentations before a panel of judges and fine tuned their robots on practice tables for the afternoon table competition.
The theme for this years event was “Animal Allies”. Lego Teams constructed a robot from Lego’s, with a Project mission to make interactions with animals better for everyone.
