My apologies, this photo was actually taken in Ohio, at the Fall Workshop. I always seem to be one workshop behind, with the official photos.
That said, here are the Project Managers, including my son, who are at the helm the ship for the 1st year of the EcoCar3 competition.
He and they are currently in Austin, Texas for the Winter Workshop. Freescale Semiconductor, one of their sponsors, is the host facility for this workshop.
As usual, we see only glimpses of action at the workshop. They have been to Texas BBQ restaurants (not surprising) and last night's final event was at the Getaway Motor Club, with food trucks and musical entertainment. Some of the students got a tour of the State Capitol (I am not sure if my son was one of them). Still, pretty cool that he is in a city he has never visited before.
Look what turned up today! A lovely photo of 4 of the team, including my son. From the photo it seems that they are having a great time together and learning a lot.
In other cool things, his end of year one competition (without cars, of course) will be taking place in Seattle, WA. It will be held from May 29th to June 4th. I think car designs will be submitted and judged.
As usual, hoping for the best for him and his team.
Which BBQ joints? I love Salt Lick!!
ReplyDeleteI think he might have ended up at The Cedar Door and at Ironworks BBQ...sometimes he does not follow the rest of the team, when he has a get together with former team members, so I can't be sure.
