Our Brehm Robotics team builds awareness of science and technology for Brehm students as well as for southern Illinois. Brehm robotics students are beginning to mentor local elementary school students and are planning community events to help educate others in our community about science, technology and math.
WHAT IS THE F.I.R.S.T. ROBOTICS COMPETITION?
The FIRST Robotics Competition (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology), founded by noted inventor Dean Kamen in 1991, challenges teams of young people to solve a common problem using a standard "kit of parts". Students build robots from the parts and compete against other teams across the country.
This year holds much promise for “Team Megahurts” — Last year, only our second year, we came within one position of making the semifinals!
Your support could take us to that next level.
Contact Russ Williams, Brehm’s Coordinator of Development, at (618) 457-0371 ext 1308, or rwilliams@brehm.org, today to find out more about your tax deductible sponsorship.
Stay tunes to this blog for upcoming Robotics news and events.
