== STEMRobotics Founder wins Volunteer of the Year Award! ==

+

Steve Rhoads was honored on Saturday March 20 with the Volunteer of the Year award at the New Jersey VEX Championship. Steve is well know in both VEX and FTC circles as a software wizard. He has brought his '''''Technomages''''', a crew of skilled software students to many events. He is also one of the driving forces behind the PSU Scrimmage, DockBots and the Eastern Pennsylvania Regional. Congrats Steve!

== PSU Abington Scrimmage - December 3, 2009 ==

+

With snow in the forecast 21 teams met at the PSU library to participate in the first Clean Sweep Scrimmage of the season. Fields supplied by STEMRobotics and Driven were set up to maximize the play action for the day. The Driven field was used for practice and both the Drivers and Programming Challenges. The STEMRobotics field was set up in the auditorium for head to head matches. Head Referee Clem McKown and his field crew ran 23 matches.

+

In the early part of the day there were robots that worked, robots that needed work and robots that were mostly unassembled parts. As the day went on, mechanical issues became fewer. Programmers from Downingtown Area Robotics lead by Steve Rhoads helped get programming to work and created autonomous programs for a number of teams.

+

It was a great start to the Clean Sweep Season. Award details can be found at [Penn State Abington VEX Clean Sweep Scrimmage]

== STEMRobotics and Girls In Gear ==

+

On November 14, 2009 STEMRobotics set up a VEX driving station for the [[Girls In Gear]] program. It was a great day showing 70 Girl Scouts that Robots Rock!
