3rd BEYA Middle & High School VEX Championships

VEX V5 General Discussion General Forum
#1

STEMRobotics is sending a team (KTOR) to the College event at the 1st annual BEYA College VEX Championships on Friday 18 Feb. I’ve heard from teams that are trying to find event slots. The 3rd BEYA Middle & High School VEX Championships has slots available if you are looking for an event. I’ve heard good things about the prior years, it’s a pretty good venue.

There may be college slots available too, there is contact info at the Robotevents link.

The venue is pretty unique for a VEX competition. The competition is in Washington DC this year and is held in conjunction with a huge conference and awards ceremony. There is an exhibit hall representing many corporations and the defense industry who are recruiting and many of the booths have small give-aways. Lots of students attending seminars.
