Greetings!
Congratulations to Ms. Denise and family on the birth of granddaughter Aurora (Rory)!
Congratulations to Camelot’s FLL Teams: Robo Rainbow Unicorns (Ian Robinson, Chase Laster, Harry Jones, Zach Ireland, and Evan MacDonald) and Titanium Pegasi (Eoin Stephens, Gray King Baker, and Ryan Rusconi-Warner). The two teams competed in an FLL tournament in Winston Salem on Saturday with great success. The Robo Rainbow Unicorns won a 2nd place trophy for Robot Design and Titanium Pegasi led a spirited dance party at the end of the day. Thank you to parents Becky Wilkes, Brennan Stephens, Chris Rusconi and David MacDonald for volunteering either with the teams or at the tournament itself. Thank you, also, to Camelot senior Rachel Roush for her role as an FLL YAM (Young Adult Mentor).
We are entering a special week that culminates with us all gathering at the Durham/Marriott Convention Center in downtown Durham on Friday morning! Please be sure to be clear on arrival and pick up times and other directions as found here:
