First Ever 'Open to All' - FREE!!... Scrapbot Convention Day.... on Sat 30th May.

We are looking for everyone to come represent themselves, their school, family, beavers, cubs, scouts, brownies, football team, ballet team up with your brother, sister, mum, dad, granddad, gran.

Build a bot (Low-tech the better) and enter it into a robot battling comp! Prizes for the peoples choice, most original idea etc.

The bots can be as low tech as a slipper sellotaped to a toy car or built from wire and glue gun with its own SRIMECH (self righting mechanism).

See the videos on the Facebook page for more details :- scrapbotbattles or check out one of the 62 battle videos listed under Scrapbots on Youtube.

Free to enter and even spectate.

A well stocked bar of soft drinks, Tea/Coffee, Pocket Money Magic Tricks, Original IOW Artwork, Mini Magic Show as well as talks from some of the bots pilots.

Not to mention PRIZES and TROPHIES!!.. (Bragging rights of course) ...and the sought after Scrapbot Battles World Championship Belt!

Which this time will be won through votes by the people! (so the more fans you take the better you could do!)
