Bowdon Elementary School Robotics Team Wins 2014 West Georgia Regional Technology Competition

The Bowdon Elementary School Robotics Team swept the 2014 West Georgia Regional Technology Competition held at the West Georgia Regional Technology Fair in Newnan, Georgia on Friday, January 24, 2014 with three winners out of three entries. Asher Christopher and Will Rainwater won first place in the third/fourth grade robotics division. Luke Rainwater and Carter Powell won first place while Luke Wilson and Chance Curbow won second place in the fifth/sixth grade robotics division. The teams will now prepare for the State Technology Fair (Georgia Educational Technology Fair). The first place winners in each division will compete at the state technology fair in Macon, Georgia, on March 8, 2014. Community support for the Robotics Program has been key as the Bowdon Educational Schools Foundation provided funds to purchase robotics kits for the elementary school. Additional funds were provided through grants from Carroll EMC, the Georgia Power Company, and the Wal-Mart Corporation.
