We are the Linn-Mar Iron Lions, FIRST Robotics team 967. Linn-Mar Robotics is an extracurricular activity for students attending Linn-Mar High School in Marion, Iowa. The team builds robots for competition, and leads projects that benefit the local community. We meet Thursdays at 7:00 in Mr. Niemitalo's room. Potential members are always welcome!

Team 967 recently returned from the Greater Kansas City Regional, where we competed. Congratulations to team 525 from Cedar Falls Iowa on winning said regional. Their alliance partners were teams 931 and team 2345. Congratulations to them all.

The build season is going well for Team 967, the Iron Lions. Our competition robot is coming along quite well with completed and updated electrical systems, finished chassies, fully functional and drivable mecanum wheels, a kicking mechanism, and much more! Here is our Mecanum drive, which we had functioning just one week after the game was revealed. Note that it can drive straight, sideways, and make it over the bumps on the playing field with ease.

This video showcases our new Mecanum Drive system, but please note that the robot in the video is simply our practice robot, not our competition robot, which is still under construction. Confused?

We have offically registered for the Greater Kansas City Regionals, which will take place on March Fourth through March Sixth.

All members need to get their information to Nemo, as he is making a spreadsheet of all our members, potential members included. People can register here

This is Mr. Nemo's task list. All members should read it, and hopefully find something that they can help with.
