We were very excited to join with Anacortes for this year’s Open Streets event. ARBC volunteers, the high school FTC coach and students, and even alumni from previous years talked with people of all ages about robots and robotics. In what might become a tradition, we even gave out free ice cream! Take a look at these photos from the event.
