The Shopaholics

We  are team 2242, the Shopaholics. Our team is comprised of 8 members, aged 11-14,  who have never met. Most of us were on a First Lego League team last year.   We are part of an organization in Oakville, Ontario Canada called E-Bots, where we  do FLL outside of school. We usually meet from 2 pm to 9 pm on Saturday’s and  some extra weeknights up to regionals and whenever we could up until  provincials. We won robot performance at regionals and provincials with a high  score of 580. Sometimes when we cannot meet, we use our forum to communicate  with each other. This year, we learned how the shopping carts found in today’s  shopping centres are not designed for seniors in mind. We learned a lot about  how the only time seniors can communicate is at the grocery store. This year’s  challenge helped us develop a greater understanding and respect for seniors. The  most important aspect of our team is having fun!
