Three members of the WSU Robotics Club came to LaCrosse High School Oct. 27 and visited the science class taught by Matt Wysock. The club showed the students a drone they had built and a tractor-type robot that was remotely controlled with a camera and remote controls.

The three club members talked with the students in the classroom about how robotics is involved in so many areas of their lives.

The club will return Saturday, Dec. 5, to LaCrosse High School for a robotics day. There will be several stations showing different projects, programming, building and flying booths. It is open to all ages from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
