Build the Lego Mindstorm Ev3 Core Set (45544) at World War Brick 2024! This activity will be held from 1:00 PM – 4:00 PM on Sunday June 9, 2024 at World War Brick in Minneapolis, MN and is limited to 24 spots! Weekend Pass Holders will get the first chance to sign up but the event will be open to the public if space allows!

For this activity small groups of participants will collaborate to build and program a LEGO Mindstorm robot. If time permits, groups can equip and program their robot to follow a line or explore the room using an ultrasonic sensor.  Due to the complexity of the build and programming participants need to have completed second grade.  The content of this activity covers a significant amount of the requirements needed for the retired robotics adventure for Bears in Cub Scouts, the Robotics Merit Badge and two of the three robotics badges for Girl Scouts.

This activity will also help raise funds for The Mission Project charity! Participants can reserve their spot at the World War Brick store for $10 for an individual or $15 for a duo. Sign ups will open Friday June 7th at 10:00 AM for Weekend Pass Holders and Saturday at 10:00 AM for Public Exhibition Tickets. Please note, you do NOT get to keep the set. That said, it’s a a heck of a fun experience!
