Dean Kamen, founder of FIRST Robotics, is speaking at the
Midland Center for the Arts (MCFTA) on August 27. The Freeland Robotics Club has purchased
tickets to this event. If you are a
current student member of the club, the fee is covered. If students are considering joining the club,
and would like to attend, the cost is $5 per ticket. Adult tickets are $12.
Mr. Kamen is a renowned inventor and entrepreneur. Having seen him in person, I can say he is a
very inspirational and dynamic speaker.
His inventions truly have changed the world. He holds over 440 US patents. His inventions include the Segway, Sling
Shot, numerous medical devices, and solar power advancements. He founded FIRST robotics and DEKA, an
research and development institute.
I highly recommend this event to all students, teachers, and
parents. Tickets are first-come-first
serve. I will order more if they are
available from the MCFTA. However, the
event is expected to be a sell-out. For
