Shopping CartWorkshops with limited space or availability of supplies require sign up to ensure things aren’t over-allocated. To sign up for a workshop, you must first be registered to attend the convention. Then in early May, you will be notified via email of a specific day and time when workshop registration will open. After that, it is up to you. First come first served. After a workshop is filled/sold out, you can use the Contact Us form to ask to be put on a waiting list in case there are cancellations.

Intro to Mindstorms–Stair Climbing
Led by: Steve Hassenplug & John Brost
Learn some basics of Mindstorms and build a robot to climb stairs. Then stick around to compete against others to see who can get to the top of the stairs first.
Sign up required to use one of our MINDSTORMS sets - 15 available
The set is on loan to you. We expect it to be fully returned.
Note: We ask that if you have borrowed our sets in prior years that you allow others to have an opportunity to use those sets. Instructors will be looking for familiar faces and working to involve new people if they don't have sets.
