We Need One of These - Mike Evele

nThis book shares the history of the Grandville High School RoboDawgs. It uses stories from the team's 27 year history to help readers understand the growth of the RoboDawg program from its start with one FIRST Robotics team to become one of the most successful competitive robotics teams in the world. Starting with Lego League and VEX IQ, the Grandville robotics program introduces kids to VEX Robotics, Robot Combat, Aerial Drone Racing, and Underwater Rovers.n nn nWe hope this book will help compel community, school, and business leaders to seek out and support their area's competitive robotics programs. In telling the RoboDawgs story, we want to share stories from our years of involvement that will encourage and invigorate our fellow coaches, volunteers, and teachers around the country as they work to further develop their own programs. Most of all, we want this story to inspire students and adult leaders in those communities that still don't have competitive robotics programs to take the leap and get them going. n
