General Info
Central Firehawk VEX IQ Challenge Tournament
Welcome to the Central Firehawk Challenge with this year's game Crossover. We will have a full field of 36 teams enjoying a day of robot driving and lots of smiles. Come see the robots in their fancy balancing acts as they tackle the bridge this year and try to squeeze two bots onto a well balanced bridge.
Pit Area
The pit area will be in the student center with the fields. Each team will be provided with their own table and work space. Power will be supplied but you may want to bring your own power strip / surge protector.
Food
There will be snack items on sale at the event along with pizza meal deals.
Spectators
Family and friends are welcome to attend free of charge. We will have a VRC event happening at the same time in the gym with the Middle and High School teams. Be sure to go see the big bots in action.
