Announcements
IMPORTANT: Volunteering for Vexmen December Events - We are releasing our volunteer forms for the Vexmen Showdown (V5) and Vexmen Open (IQ). These events require a TON of support, so all teams are required to volunteer in order to be able to compete. Please sign-up sooner than later to secure your spot!
License Plates - All teams need license plates to compete at local events. Please work with the build chief to get your plates!
Vexmen Shirts - All students should be wearing their vexmen apparel at events. If you are looking for an additional shirt or other swag, please check in with the build chief.
Other Event Preparation - Ensure that your notebooks are up to date and that your team can FULLY pass inspection (V5 and IQ). If you have ANY questions, please ask one of the build chiefs. Finally, please make sure your team is up to date with the latest game manual and Q&A.
