About Our Meetings 

Meetings are held on the last Wednesday of the month from January through November. There is no December meeting. Anyone interested in or curious about robotics is welcome to attend our meetings.

Our meetings are relaxed and informal. We try to have a featured speaker and presentation at every meeting. The current year's presentation schedule is listed below.  In addition to the regular meeting presentation, we run club robotic contests, have special interest group workshops and enjoy sharing our robotic creations and building techniques.
