RoboRaiders – Northfield High School Robotics Team

December 2016

robo-raidersThe RoboRaiders Robotics Team is known for the time they put into building their competition robots, however, that is just a small part of what they do. The competition build season lasts only six weeks, the rest of the year this group meets to learn new skills, practice their techniques, market their work, fundraise and inspire youth younger than them to participate in STEM programs. Five members of the Robotics team put forward a YouthBank proposal asking for funds to help them with their outreach to students in the high and middle schools that aren’t familiar with the robotics team and the skills one can gain by participating. The YouthBank team is excited to fund this group and the amazing work they are doing.
