Sun River Valley Robotics

Sun River Valley Robotics is a FIRST Tech Challenge group with multiple teams out of Sun River, MT (pop. 41), with members spanning over 625 square miles. 

Founded as a single FRC team in 2005, RedNek Robotics Wun created an FTC team in 2007, making a full transition to competing only in FTC in 2011. Since then, we’ve enjoyed many years of success, winning Worlds 3 times and placing 2nd twice.  

RedNek Robotics Wun (724) has been here since the beginning. However, with an expanding program, RedNek Robotics Too (4535) was added in 2010, Static Mechanix (14019) was added in 2017, and Fire Breathing Farmers (16015) was added in 2019. After the pandemic, Sun River Valley Robotics struggled to continue the program, but eventually formed a full team in 2022. Since then, Sun River Valley Robotics has also established several younger teams. Most recently, the main team has been able to mentor two elementary/junior high teams. In 2023, Robo-Monkey (16015) was revived from a former team, and, in 2024, RocketBots (28809) was created.
