Description
Once a year the club host an annual banquet to showcase our teams' accomplishments for the year to faculty, staff and students who are involved with RoboJackets. This event generally is centered around a presentation that is given by the officers and team leaders covering the club as a whole and each team. Food is also served in conjunction with the event.
The main items for the banquet are:
- Presentation
- Reserving a room to hold the banquet in
- Getting food catered for the event
- Sending out invitations
Presentation
The presentation for the banquet is our one formal opportunity to show faculty, staff, and students involved with RoboJackets what we have done over the past year and also introduce them to our new officers and team leaders.The presentation should highlight our accomplishments to date and should provide some technical information about our systems. For example, details about the algorithms each team is using in their robot(s) and implementation of those algorithms are good topics to go over in the presentation. Videos, if available, should be shown to give the audience some idea of how the robots work in the real world. The presentation should also provide some information about what the club as a whole is doing in terms of outreach (FIRST, and TE sessions) and what it is doing to provide our members with fun activities to offset the grueling work of designing and building robots for competition. Lastly, the presentation should introduce our new officers and team leaders and what they each plan to accomplish over the next year. All of this should fit in a presentation that should last 20-45mins.
