Thank you to this year's financial sponsor MidAmerican Energy Foundation, and our resident engineer, Jeff Bellis from BAE Systems.
Any success we have had is, in part, because of your support.
Appreciate your dedication to our students and the future of ingenuity in our city.

A long, busy day as the JFK CougarBots #27293 compete at League Championships!

We may not look as cool, we don't have thousands of 💲 to spend on fancy parts and 3d printing, we are not supported by a whole team of professional engineers.
But our team is resourceful and adaptable!
We can create the same launching angles with cardboard and zip ties, we can find the work-around, and we WILL give our competitors a run for their money.
We are proud of our work, and hold to our team motto: Success is a Process.
Let's go, CougarBots!

Cougarbots struggled at yesterday's meet when our control systems refused to speak to each other.
HOWEVER
Many other teams provided support, suggestions, and even supplies, and with their collaboration we were able to get back up and running today.
Thank you Metro Robotics for your guidance!

This week in the robotics room...
Slides are on and bucket attatched
The arm and claw are built
The meet tonight started tough and stressful: our driver hub wouldn't power on, and we lost our code. But they fought with perseverance when things got tough and picked up two more wins for the season!

Interested in sponsoring a new driver hub for the CougarBots? DM us!
