Ypsilanti-Ann Arbor Area Robotics Club
YAAARC is the sound you make as your robot drives off the edge of the workbench.
[edit] Meetings
Meetings are very informal, and dues-free. We meet at 7pm on the 4th Wednesday of January through October and the 2nd Wednesday in December (no meeting in November).

[edit] Calendar
If you have a Google account, it's real easy to add the Google Calendar to it. Or view the Calendar itself.
For those of you who have kids who are interested in robotics, send them to Rocks & Robots Summer Camp. They also have camps during spring breaks and weekend workshops.
