[Cialug] OT Robotics

[Matthew Nuzum]

I too would be interested in participating or helping with such a
group. Especially if it were family friendly and didn't meet on
Wednesdays.

I have a big vex robotics set, several kits and some micro controllers
like bs2, pic and arduino. And an 8 year old.

Should we set a date for early to mid July for an interest meeting so
that we can spread the word to see who would want to participate?
