        For the last days of the long weekend, the work pace sped up in order to keep on schedule, but the increased pressure didn't hurt the team in the slightest. The manipulator teams finished their prototypes and a second design review placed a higher emphasis on the proof of the devices actually working as well as an increased stress on paying attention to the smaller details. We manufactured some brackets in the 3D printer and they came out great!

        On Monday afternoon a reporter from our schools newspaper, The Raider Review, came to interview students and mentors a like to get an idea of how the program worked and how it has effected us as people. Hopefully the reporters article will keep a high emphasis on the FIRST program's significance in the developing world.
