This past weekend, Winnovation hosted our annual Flapjack Challenge at the Winnebago High School!! This year's game was called Water Tower Wipeout!! The goal of this game was to pick up water particles off the ground or the aquifer and put them into the water tower. There were two water towers and two teams per alliance with 8 in total ready to compete!! Our pancakes, annual basket raffle, and bake sale went on in conjunction with the mini-bot competition. Many pancakes were eaten and goodies brought home! Thank you to those who came. Winnovation appreciates your support!!!

Iowa Regional was this past Friday and Saturday. We ended up being an Alliance Captain on the 8th Alliance. 
We did excellent throughout the entire event including qualification matches and finals. Even though we ended up getting eliminated in Round 3 of semi-finals we still have high hopes for the Seven Rivers regional.  During the time in between we will be making improvements on our robot, fine tune coding, replace some parts that were damaged during Iowa and prepare for lacrosse. Our early crew for Seven rivers Regional will be leaving on April 3rd and everyone else will leave on April 4th! check us out on blue alliance, we appreciate the support!
