Colby is 14 years old and in the 8th grade at Groves Middle School. In 5th grade he saw the robotics team wanted to be in it, but he didn't get a chance to participte. He has liked Legos since being a kid. This year he wanted to go to competition but his team did not make the cut. He has learned how to use Flash 8 and Dreamweaver 8, and liked flash the best.

Jacob is 14 years old and in the 8th grade. He is among the smartest in his grade level. He takes shop and robotics as electives, and instead of a regular physical education class he is in the athletics program. He was partial designer of his team's robot for the regionals, but it wasn't chosen to go to the competition.

Russell is 13 years old. He goes to Groves Middle School and is in 8th grade. He is interested in learning more about mechanics and engineering. He also wants to be able to create video games. This is his first year in Robotics and as a ThinkQuest team member.

Tim is 13 years old and in 8th grade at Groves Middle School. He has been interested in computers and software since he was a young child. His father once had a business building and repairing computers, which is probably how he became interested. This year he was on a robotics team at shcool and although his robot was not selected to go to regional contest, he feels he was still successful in its programming. Another thing he learned in Robotics was how to use the software Flash 8 and Dreamweaver 8. He also participates in the shcool band and the athletics program. He was chosen by his team as team captain of the ThinkQuest.

ThinkQuest Coaches
Mrs. Lege, the Robotics Teacher, and Mrs. Choate, the Technology Specialist, have been a tremendous help by giving us encouragement to keep going, stay on task, and keep deadlines. We worked during class, before school, and after school.
