We are the Trumansburg High School Robot Raiders a team of ambitious students and dedicated professional mentors. We are in our second season as a team and we respectfully need your support in our efforts to build a robot and compete in this years FIRST Robotics Competition.
Our team is 100% community funded and we are raising money to help pay for materials and tools to build our robot (approximately $4,000) and competition event fees ($5,000 per event). To get a sense of the level of competition and types of robots we build, please watch this video from last years competition:
The FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC) is an international high school robotics competition that gives students real-world engineering and business development experience. Under strict rules, each team is challenged to raise funds, design (CAD), develop, build and program a 120 lb robot (including electronics and control system components, metal fabrication and pneumatics) to perform assigned tasks against an international field of competitors.
Please visit the media page of our student developed website or our teams facebook page for more more pictures of our team in action and to keep up with our current activities.
On January 3rd, this seasons FRC challenge will be unveiled and our students will have only 6 weeks of intensive building and programming to prepare for their first competition. Our needs are ramping up as we prepare to purchase parts and tools needed to build our robots.
This year, our second season, our team has doubled in size. We are hoping to go to two competitions in March. One event is at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute and the other at Rochester Institute of Technology.
Our competition registration dates are looming and we are hoping for any financial support you can provide us to help create our areas next generation of STEM and Business Leaders.
Thank you for your continued support of our students!
