California Poppy Festival
Every April Eagle Robotics is lucky to have the opportunity to participate in the largest festival and gathering that takes place in our home town. As Lancaster is home to the famous and beautiful poppy reserve, the California Poppy Festival is held in our very own city park. Eagle Robotics is donated two 'plots' to use, and uses one as a booth to inform the thousands of festival visitors about our program, and the other to demonstrate several robots.
