They are the first public school robotics team in their county to achieve this. 8479 is one of 200 Maryland teams that vied for 50 spots to compete in the Maryland State Championship. At the state championship, the 8479 alliance came in second place. This secured their opportunity to attend Worlds as 1 of 7 Maryland teams attending the event. The Worlds Championship will have an estimated 30,000 students and 74 countries In attendance at the event in Detroit. This will be the first time 8479 has ever been invited to the Worlds Championship.

The team has dedicated numerous hours to designing, building, testing, re-building, programming and many other tasks to make their robot extraordinary! They would be extremely grateful for your donation. Thank you
