GILFORD — The Gilford Parks and Recreation Department is sponsoring a robotics workshop through Sciensational Workshops for Kids for children ages 7-12, from 9 a.m. – 4:30 p.m. on August 13-14.
Participants will build and take home a robot with four built-in microphones that will detect sound and will move accordingly. Participants will learn about the different gears and sensors as they build it and how to make their robot move the way they want. Participants will also work in groups to build other robots that they can enter into sumo wrestling matches and obstacle course events.
Registration is taking place at the Gilford Parks and Recreation Office and forms are also available on-line at www.gilfordrec.com . Cost: $134 per participant
