Mission Statement
Our mission is to inspire students ages 14-18 to become leaders in science, technology, engineering, and math fields by having fun. We need marketing, finance/accounting, writing, fundraising, and engineering mentors!
Description
We are a community-based FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC) team in Wilmington, NC. For the 2015 season, we have students from each New Hanover County public high school. Our students have a 6 week build season to strategize, design, plan, build, program, and market a 120lb robot for each year's FRC challenge. Competition is a global environment. Students learn business, engineering, math, strategy, fundraising, and marketing real-world skills while having fun in a sporting environment. If you can imagine the inspiring environment of an arena full of 25,000 teenagers focused and excited about science and technology, then you should volunteer with us.
