OUTREACH

Recently, we demoed our robot at our district special-education school. The next step in our plan to bring the Unified Robotics League to Wisconsin is to start a team in Fairview South to compete in Minnesota, and then move the league to Wisconsin, depending on their performance.

Our podcast, which we started this season, is made to connect with other FIRST teams around the world. We have already interviewed teams from Libya, China, Vietnam, UAE, Greece, Australia, India, Moldova, Kazakhstan, and many more. Additionally, we have over 1000 impressions on Spotify. 

Our team goes to Makerfaire at Discovery World every year to showcase our robot and participate in all the other STEAM related activities.

We visited Green Bay to participate in the Rock the Dock Fundraiser. We hope to go again next year. 

Our team went to demo our robot at an FRC event as a part of TWIST (Together Women In STEAM Thrive). We drove our robot, showcased our team to all the onlookers, and told them about what we do in FTC. 

We were invited to the EEF Ladies event, it was a great opportunity to showcase our team as a whole, to parents and our Elmbrook community that probably may have or haven’t heard of the robotics team at our school. 

We participated in the Fourth of July Parade this year with all of the FIRST teams. This was our third year in a row. This has been a great privilege to show our community about FIRST.

We have been interviewing many women in STEAM. We have interviewed many prominent women in STEAM. All the videos are posted on our YouTube channel!

Our team hosted Camp Cosmo. Camp Cosmo was a STEAM camp for elementary to middle school kids, where they used a design process and worked as a team to solve a challenge.

Some of our team helped out our FLL teams in our district. They did a mock judging with the FLL team so they would be prepared for their competition.

We went to Kendra Scott to display our robot and educate people who came in about FIRST in our community.

We were invited to man a booth at the fair this year and got to talk to an audience in a building as a bonus. In addition to presenting at our booth, we drove our robot around to meet everyone! We hope to come again next year.

Every year we attend a summer camp FRC team BEAST hosts. The Summer camp focused on showing kids fun aspects of STEM. We shared what it’s like to be on an FTC team in all aspects including mechanical, software, and business.
