PROGRAM
 
 
The Orcutt Spartatronics at the Rotary Club of Santa Maria Breakfast on July 29, 2021.
We were treated to an exciting demonstration of what this 2020 - 2021 Robot can do.
We also learned that these young boys and girls designed and built this Robot from the ground up. They are supported by several mentors, two of whom were at this meeting, Tom McGinnis and Scott Rowe.
