     Who we are:
     
           We are the future engineers/programmers that develop their skills and ideas throughout the experience of being in robotics. It's not just "I'm going to build a robot" but it is about teamwork and having everybody's ideas together to make the best robot that can perform individual tasks that involve difficult challenges. It's not just about winning and being the best group throughout the district, but it mainly consists of getting everyone to participate and create this one massive masterpiece and watch it actually work. We are the future, We are the Robotics Team!
