On Saturday, February 18th, Walton Robotics hosted eight teams from across Georgia on the Marietta DE 2017 FRC Steamworks competition field. The teams experienced a safety briefing, lunch, and of course ROBOTS! We had some teams who could climb and others that could get across the field really fast. It was a wonderful day full of information sharing, teamwork, and all around fun!
