FIRST® (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) LEGO® League (FLL®) has arrived in Saskatchewan. Teams of between two and 10 kids and two adult coaches work to complete a three-part challenge: a Robot Game, Project, and the FLL Core Values. This year's challenge, to be released on August 25, is called TRASH TREKSM.

The Department of Computer Science at the University of Regina is concluding its week-long camp on July 24 where the campers experience designing, building, programming, and testing of LEGO® robots with last year's FLL robot game.

Media are invited to attend the camp to get a first-hand look at the LEGO® robots between 11 a.m. – 12 p.m. and 3 - 4 p.m. on Friday, July 24 by arranging viewings with Daryl Hepting at (306) 596-6312.
