We believe this rebrand will allow us to expand our branding (logo, t-shirts, mascot, etc.) and facilitate greater team spirit in the following years. Whilst this is a significant change, it is not the first time our team has changed its name and we believe that it will help the team greatly in the years to come! + +![Sophia '25, Ally '25, and Kendree '25 making a small catapult at the first Mechanical training.](../images/newsletter/nov2022/nov22_2.jpg) +#### Sophia '25, Ally '25, and Kendree '25 making a small catapult at the first Mechanical training. + +## Fall Preparations + +As of late, the team is busy preparing for the build season ahead. We have started our hands-on training for the mechanical, electrical, CAD (Computer-Aided Design), and programming subteams. In the first mechanical training, members made mini catapults with similar materials and tools that are used on our robots. Meanwhile, the outreach and branding subteam has been hard at work recruiting, managing sponsors, and developing further Lobstah Bots branding, such as our logo and t-shirt designs. In October, some team members attended a STEM fair, hosted by Boston Public Schools, to represent FIRST® Robotics and connect with our local community. + +![Students Maxwell '25, Eli '24, Sonya '24, Brandon '23, George '24, and mentors Aidan and Oliver '16 attended the Boston Public Schools STEM Fair.](../images/newsletter/nov2022/nov22_3.jpg) +#### Students Maxwell '25, Eli '24, Sonya '24, Brandon '23, George '24, and mentors Aidan and Oliver '16 attended the Boston Public Schools STEM Fair. + +## The Season Ahead + +We can’t wait for the build season kickoff as it quickly approaches!
