Week 7 Press Release

Denfeld Nation Automation (DNA) Week Seven Update 

Greetings,

With the final week before DNA’s first competition at the DECC in Duluth, MN, the final push was made. The team traveled to Esko for final testing, and let the programmers get some much-needed time to configure the robot. The team also gained valuable scouting knowledge from FRC team 5690 Subzero, starting the process of scouting teams at scrimmage events taking place that same weekend.

The upcoming event is open to the public, taking place on Thursday through Saturday of this same week. Thursday will be a practice day, allowing teams to calibrate to the field and start the scouting of the other teams. Friday and Saturday are the qualification match days, it is always a fun and energetic event and the team recommends that everyone attends if they are able to.

The team would also like to welcome you to a robot reveal taking place tomorrow February 27th at Denfeld high school at 6 pm. They hope you are able to attend with the short notice.

We are very excited to be starting the 2024 competition season! To keep up with our progress, check out our social media sites
