V.2 Of Seycove7!

As you might already know a few classes from our school have been competing in a challenge called destination imagination, and if you haven’t heard of it, this post will not make any sense to you so I would suggest reading this link before. Anyways moving on to this post, so in the regional challenge we got third place after that our group debated if we wanted to move on to the provincial in the end we decided to go and we got *drum roll* second place which was pretty good considering there where some kids who came from China and our speakers ran out of batteries 😂.

The rules were that we had to have two propulsion systems and two movement methods. We had our wheels and our motor but we needed to come up with more before the competition, two nights before the competition we attached a cardboard box with couch movers at the bottom then after we got a drill and made it into a very modified crane. So it was the day of the competition and we where excited/nervous and pretty prepared, when we got on stage our cardboard box wouldn’t move! So we got rid of that and we started up the drill/crane thing. You guessed it, the drill stopped working! So basically while we were changing everything on stage, everybody was doing the play and as luck would have it the speakers ran out of batteries, anyways I’m very proud of our group for pulling it all together on the stage no matter what the problem was and earning second place. Unfortunately only first placers got to go to Texas for the globals but I’m still very happy with the outcome and excited for next year!
