SHADETREE MECHANICS INCORPORATED

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.
