Team 1799 sends students and robots to many events to promote our team, FRC, STEM, and DRHS. Elementary students consistently like to see the robots run, pick-up and shoot balls. We have older robots that we have been able dial down the power so that we can safely let the young kids drive it a little. Getting their attention is just the first step. The next is to connect them with age-appropriate FIRST competition so that they can get involved. FLL Discover (P-1), FLL Explore (2-4), FIRST Lego League Challenge (4-8). firstinspires.org

To keep students excited, FRC and FTC teams often demonstrate their robots at FLL events. Showing the kids what they can do as they get older and why what they are learning now is important.
Elementary and Middle School Science Fairs are also a great opportunity to invite the robotics team to demonstrate their robots and talk to students about STEM. The young a students can find a love for STEM the better prepared they will be in high school and college to do well.
