Bot Boogaloo Spring 2019

CIRC hosted a NEW robotics contest, Bot Boogaloo 19. It was held on Saturday, April 6, 2019 at Illinois Central College in East Peoria, Illinois, in room 212/213 of the Academic Building. This was our first Bot Boogaloo. Here is a link to a map of the Academic Building. On this map, the room we used is marked 213b. There were signs directing people to the best way to get from parking to the room. Here is a link to parking. People used Lot V. Note that College Avenue is a one way road.

Currently we have a video of the entire event with no editing via our YouTube page. Highlight video of all events.

We served a light lunch to competitors and non-competitors. Snacks and drinks were available from vending machines. The campus cafeteria was closed.

We offered the opportunity for competitors to mail in entries for events, though no one took advantage of it. Here is a link to the form with details on how to mail in entries along with contact information if you have questions. Mail in entry form.
