What resources does Helias Robotics need?

 

Running a FIRST® Tech Challenge team can be expensive, so money is needed resource. Some monetary expenses include:

​

1. Team registration in FIRST® Tech Challenge

2. Competition expenses

3. Buying new parts to upgrading to keep up to date

​

Another way to help the team is to be a volunteer or mentor. Adult leaders like these provide guidance and advice to team members as they go throughout their season. It is a great way to pour back into the lives of students.

​

Sometimes Helias Robotics needs mechanical parts which companies are willing to provide.

​

If you would like to volunteer or donate to the team, please reach out.

​

In what competition do you all compete?

​

We compete in FIRST® Tech Challenge. For Inspiration of Science and Technology (FIRST®) is an organization that runs several levels of worldwide robotics competitions. In FIRST® Tech Challenge, the middle level, in which we build small metal robots and compete in a yearly changing competition. FIRST® Tech Challenge teams do not try to destroy other team's robots, but instead try to score points in an objective task.

​

The motto of FIRST® is Gracious Professionalism. This means that while competing hard on the field, teams must maintain good sportsmanship, and respect other teams and their members. The real objective of FIRST® is not winning the competitions, but helping students grow. We think this goal aligns nicely with the mission of Helias Catholic High School.
