Minuteman High School's FIRST Robotics team (8604) is rebuilding. Since we didn't compete in 2025, we're working to get back to the level we reached in 2023, when our alliance won an NE District event. We NEED adult mentors who have some robot experience, such as: - Mechanical, electrical, controls or software engineers - Machinists, welders and fabricators who have built or worked on robots - Past FIRST or other robotics team alumni Commitment: as little as one evening a month to start, more if you can. Build sessions are usually 6-8:30pm at the Minuteman High School where we have got all the advanced machinery tools. All mentors complete a free FIRST background screening. Email your interest to kcai@minuteman.org. If you want to get involved but don't have the technical expertise, we also need help with fundraising and sponsorships outreach. https://www.frc8604.com/about-us
