Just got a box in from Parallax loaded with a bunch of goodies for prizes and raffles at Propeller Expo 2013!

Thank you Jim, Lauren, and Ken of Parallax!

Hope you guys are working on your project and planning to attend! We already have some amazing project committed!

Remember, the focus of this Expo is YOUR PROJECTS and the things that EXCITE YOU about the Propeller.
As always, we aren't looking for professional speakers, just folks who don't mind sharing what keeps you Prop'n.

Don't forget the famous Expo FREEBIE TABLE! Grab a box and start filling it up with all that stuff that you meant to use two years ago and get rid of that shop clutter!

    I robotics contest in also in the works! I've never built a line following robot, but it looks like I'll have a good reason to do so soon!
