Mission Statement

Provide access to FIRST Robotics competitions for any student that does not have access on their home campus. The program is designed for students aged 13 and up that have not yet graduated from High School.

Description

Until May 2011, only one of the four high schools in the Killeen (Texas) Independent School District had a FIRST FRC team. Nearby Belton ISD and Copperas Cove ISD did not offer teams, either. A group of parents, students and mentors decided it was time to change that and make FRC available to any high school student in the greater Killeen Area. Thanks to the generosity of the Frishman family, our team has found a home in the garage at their house. This helps us stretch our limited funds far enough to attend to regional competitions each year. Even better, it brings the team together as family; we eat together, work together and relax together on the Frishman's back patio when we find a moment for a break.
