Farmers Market STEM outreach and Robt showcase at Sammamish city hall We host summer camps for both engineering and programming for middle school students and incoming freshman. We designed and are marketing STEM kits for middle and elementary school students to explore engineering concepts at home. We have been holding a recycling initiative for the past years, hoping to reduce the number of robotic components that end up in the landfill. Our Food FIRST Initiative began back in March 2020, as a single team fundraiser. Today, this fundraiser has reached 24 FIRST teams in 6 states.
