The team in comprised of three main groups: the build group, the computer support group, and the marketing group. All of these have a major role in achieving the overall goals of the program.
The build group is responsible for constructing a robot within a particular height and weight restriction that can perform certain tasks of a game within a set time limit.
The computer support group creates an animated 30 second video which shows the robot in action and conveys the message of FIRST robotics. The computer support group also programs the controls that operate the robot.
The marketing group publicizes the program and organizes fundraisers to cover team expenses.
After an intense six week build period, our team competes with our robot at regional competitions and possibly The Championship in St. Louis, Missouri. We also vie for several prestigious awards for robot design, engineering, appreciation, and community outreach
