Kickoff – FIRST Power Up – January 6, 2018
FIRST PowerUp is all about strategy. A retro video game collided with FIRST game developers, and came up with a crazy complicated game. We love it.
The first step was a bunch of quiet reading time to learn the rules.

Then small groups to figure out what those rules mean. How can we score points? Is there a way to guarantee a win?

Gitchi Gummi Get Together – July 20-21
For the first time, No Mythic traveled to Duluth to the summer Gitchi Gummi Get Together. This 1 1/2 day mini-regional is hosted by the Duluth East Daredevils, and features more matches and more networking time than most mini-regionals. Our team co-scouted with the Robettes, which was a huge success. One highlight of the event this year was the mentor match. Watch mentors try to control the robots and move gears below.
