Robotic Parade Floats will be displayed on tables in the Gym of Martin Middle School. Classes will be assigned a table for every two floats. Please list the number of floats your class will be entering into the parade. Tables will be assigned on the day of the event.

There is no fee for participating in Robotics Park school events however providing a Robotics Park volunteer (at least one per class) is a requirement for registration. This requirement must be met in order for your class to take part in Robotics Park and is required instead of a registration fee. Your classroom volunteer must attend a Robotics Park staff training meeting from 6-8 pm on Thursday, April 8, 2010 in the Cafeteria at Martin Middle School and they will be expected to help out at Robotics Park from either 9:30-12:30 or 12:00-3:00 on April 10th. A few volunteers will be needed for set-up on Friday night as well. Sign-ups for volunteers task will take place at the April 8th meeting.

If your team is "visiting" from out of state and at a distance, the April 8th meeting requirement for your volunteer may be waived, however you must contact Rebekah Gendron to discuss this situation at 508-496-9478 or at gendronrj@yahoo.com before you begin to register. A registration fee may be assessed.

How to register:

As always, there are a variety of events this year.  This year you may register for multiple events in one registration.

Please be advised that the deadline for registration is Saturday, April 4th.  We can not guarantee that your students' projects will make it into the Robotics Park program booklet or that you will get a favored selection for space if you register after this time.

Choose at least three booths that would be acceptable to you.  When you register indicate your 1st, 2nd and 3rd booth choices.  We will do our best to accommodate your choice of booths on a first-come first-serve basis.
