Danville Tour

Tour Information

Danville Middle School's Lego Team knows that when we move, play, and compete in any sport, we use our minds — our creativity, imagination, and critical thinking — as much as we use our muscles. It’s time to redefine the game and revolutionize the way we play and move.

The 2020-2021 FIRST LEGO League Challenge season has asked that our team help build a culture that recognizes the athlete in each of us— whether our talents lie on the court, in the lab, or with a controller in hand. We will explore the evolution of our sports and activities that make us physically and mentally strong.

Our goal is to give you an opportunity to learn about the town and community of Danville while participating in activities that keep you fit.
