Work Area: During our first year in BEST, we would work in a very old building which was later sold, torn down, and is most likely going to become a parking lot (there have been many rumors spreading that say it's either going to be a Wallmart, a MC Donalds, or a Trinity Gym, but I doubt it will be any of those). Now, we work in a new area called "The Hive," which used to be a recreation center that you could go to, that is if you earned it! It was sad to see the old building go, very sad, but we love the Hive just as much. The only problem this year is that it has been turned into a class, so we might not be able to use it again.

Our Team was divided into smaller groups to get more done:

Robot: This team concentrates on designing, building, and testing the robot. Everyone else can say their opinion, but this team makes all the decisions regarding the robot.

Website: I am in charge of this team; we design, build, test, upload, and promote the website. I have been maintaining the site for four years now, and this year around I finally have a team to boss around! Seriously though, everyone in this group has their say in what goes in or out, but I am the one who codes it. I plan to have some people incharge of the blog, guestbook, photos etc., so I don't do everything.
This is what the original design was for this website, it seemed like a good idea at the time:
The Old Design.

Last Year's Winning Sites:

Notebook: I bet you can't guess what everyone in this group does. They work on the notebook! We still haven't figured out what the judges like exactly, but fourth times the charm right?

Last year's winning Notebooks:
Alamo Area Home School Notebook (5.3 MB)
Medina Valley High School Notebook (2.2 MB)

Presentation: Everyone in this group plans for the presentation we are required to give.

Display: This team works on building the display. Everyone usually contributes to building the display, but this team does most of the work.

Spirit: An last but not least, we have a group for spirit. They are incharge of getting a band, cheerleaders, or anyone that wants to help stir the crowd into a wild frenzy.
