We all had a great time at the 10,000 Lakes Regional competition, and are happy to announce that we won the FIRST Impact Award! We are going to Houston, Texas for worlds on April 17-20! A massive thanks to everyone who's supported us along our journey.

As new members have trickled in, The Centurions have kicked off our pre-season.  New members are tasked to build a new robot for a practice "mini season" to allow their new skills to blossom. 

During the Northern Lights Regional, The Centurions were featured on Fox 21 for news coverage of the event.  As the 2023 comes to a close for us, reflection beings and innovation is planned for victory next season!

Our 2023 season robot is really coming along! It even has a name now. It is named after the Roman God of Innovation: Mercury!

Now that build season has begun, the whole team is working hard to design, code, and then eventually build the robot!

Kickoff was awesome! We're already hard at work, making concepts and designs! Robot name is TBD.

Working on taking Spes apart and setting up the new swerve drive!

Everyone had a great time at the Minnesota Robotics Invitational! It was a great way to bond and practice, and we placed 9th in the tournament!

We were joined by the CMS Lego League robotics team to represent Centennial robotics in the homecoming parade.

We have greatly improved our robot since our last competition (Week Zero) and we are ready for the North Star Regional at Mariucci Arena on April 8th and 9th, See you there!

We are adding some finishing touches to the robot for the Week Zero competition at Irondale High School this Saturday!! We hope to see you there!!

The climbers and electronics for our robot are coming along nicely, We are also planning some new SWAG for this year!!

This week we received our frame for the new robot, We are also making some of the elements for this year's game. We are ready to build! 

Today was the kick-off for the 2022 game, Rapid React, We got together to watch this year's kick-off live stream. Already we have started strategizing this year's game and planning this year's robot. We also got our kit of parts and our team t-shirts for this year, Happy building!

We have been preparing since the end of September for this year's kick-off, New and returning members of the team have been practicing their skills, We have also attended two regional competitions during the pre-season, Today was the last meeting before the kick-off (01/08/2022) and we are ready for the 2022 build season!! 

Yesterday night, we held a fundraiser at Lucy's Burgers in Blaine from 6 P.M. to 9 P.M. During those hours, the Centennial Robotics Booster received a portion of the profits from food and drink sales at Lucy's Burgers. A handful of students and parents were volunteering during this time. Thank you to everyone who stopped by and Thank you Lucy's Burgers for allowing us to hold the fundraiser.

Our first official meeting for the 2021 Pre-Season! First we introduced new members to our team and explained the goals of robotics and 2472. Then, we did stations for each department in our team to teach new members about them and they decided which ones they would like to be a part of. Our numbers have nearly doubled since last year!

We have just completed our virtual judging session and it went great! We are now pulling or drive team together and putting the finishing touches on our robot. We will soon be taking videos to show the judges how the robot works and it moving by itself. This year has been a blessing in disguise. With being able to continues to work on our robot from last year. Our new team members have been able to learn a lot and continue to learn how to make a robot and how it works.

As we near the normal competition season, our team has been checking things off our to-do list left and right. The team has been preparing for the video submissions required for this year's virtual competition. We have also been busy with making sure everything is in perfect shape so we can perform to our best ability for this year's competition. 

We have gotten permission to have meetings in school again and have started to meet more regularly. With everyone following the rules we have been able to get more stuff done. The programmers were able to hook up the controls to the motor. The CAD team have started redrawing the Shooter on the robot. The mechanical team has added air tanks to the robot and removed the turret. 

We got so many new people this year we don't know what to do. Everyone has found their department that they like and have gotten straight to work. Today we have the programmers learning new code and the mechanical organizing the robot parts and in turn learning how the robot and parts work.

We are back and we are finally able to begin meeting in person one day a week. We are so excited for all the new faces showing up, everyone is following all safety protocols, and getting back into the swing of things. 

With the pandemic here and here to stay. School up and running again. The robotics team must push through. Today we had our first official meeting in months. We are so happy to be seeing each other again and working together. 

Over the week are team did a food drive for the Centennial Community Food Shelf at Our Savior's Church. Sitting out in the hot grueling sun was a blast! We had fun seeing new and old friends. Getting to better know the community was a gift that we would love to do again. 

We had a great time at the Great Northern Regional at Grand Forks. We had a blast competing with everyone. It was great learning experience for us and we cannot wait for North Star at Mariucci in Minneapolis, see you all there!

Hey guys, we're  almost ready to head to Grand Forks ND, only a couple meeting left for us. This week we finished mounting our shooter mechanism, and it is up and running. We're almost done with our climbing mechanism too. We can't wait for Grand Forks, we hope to see some of you guys there! 

Sorry for the late update, We had an eventful Saturday co-hosting our Week Zero event with Irondale high school. At Week Zero we were able to finish our ball collector and train our new members with driving.  Hopefully you all had a successful week zero, see you next week!

This week we have continued to prefect our code our 2020 robot. We also began to mount our shooting mechanism onto our robot, along with our climbing mechanism. See you next week! 

This week we got closer to perfecting our shooting mechanism. We also decorated out hallway for our schools Winter Week. Along with decorating, we nested into our new storage space by putting us old 2472 memorabilia. See you next week! 

This week we finished the frame for our new robot! We are also working on six wheel drive. Another thing we are working on is the bar that the robot will hang off of. See you next week!

This week, We continued to work on the designs and prototypes for our ball collector, ball shooter, and lift mechanism. Programming has been working hard on coding and practicing with our 2019 robot. We ordered our team shirts and purchased the Limelight 2+ camera. See you next week!

This week, We dismantled our 2018 robot and built a whiteboard just for our team. We also organized our new storage space and finalized our t-shirt design. Today we are planning more handouts for the Great Northern Regional and North Star Regional. See you next week!

Happy 2020 Kickoff! Today we gathered for breakfast as a team and watched the live stream of the Kickoff together. Afterwards we began strategizing ideas for our Infinite Recharge robot. Happy building!

Hey guys! Today we are making a plan for this season's kickoff. Also finding more leaders within our team. We have found a solution for the seat belt for our toy vehicle modification project. This is our last meeting before break, Happy Holidays to all!
