Stamping Ground Robotics Goes to Worlds!

This year was an exceptionally challenging year for our Robotics team. At the beginning of October, the club had yet to find a coach to take on the role. I decided “how hard it could it be?” and tackled the task head on. We started practice in mid-November with three teams and competed in our first competition by December. Two of the three teams received awards and we were so happy! A fire was lit and we got to work.

Our teams worked extremely hard and ALL THREE teams made it to our State Competition in March. Our 80602C team made it to the finals portion of the competition. This year we knew getting a bid to worlds was going to be a lot tougher as Kentucky was only given three bids. During teamwork finals, our C team was paired up with another Scott County school and we took home the teamwork championship. This secured our bid to Worlds and we couldn’t have been happier.

Unfortunately, we do not have enough funds to pay for all aspects of the event. The registration alone is $1800 per team, and we are in need of assistance to help cover lodging and transportation for our students. Any donation you could offer in ensuring that these students have the opportunity to attend this event would be greatly appreciated. For your sponsorship, we will recognize you in our team’s pit area on a banner displayed for all to see. We are also exploring team jerseys to proudly promote our sponsorships during the competition.

Thank you for considering SGE Robotics Club and SGE PTO
