The Hydro Automatons from Hood River won the overall fourth place Championship Award in the Oregon State First Lego League Championship Tournament last month and has been invited to compete at the First Lego League North American Open Championship on May 18 at Legoland in California.

The team is a mix of siblings and friends from grades 5-8. For some, it is only the second year doing robotics and for one member, it is the final year at FLL with a career at FTC ahead, the team stated in a press release.
