River City Robots is ALL about getting our kids fired
up about technology. Robotics holds so much interest in young minds it
is a natural way of doing this. They have such a good time and learn so
much about teamwork, problem solving, design, working their minds,
working their hands, working with electronics, working with software and
so much more there is not room to list them all.
This all happens under adult supervision and
mentoring and with real world constraints of money and time. These
skills have and will help those involved become what they can and want
to be.
River City Robotics is not just for the "nerdy",
"geeky", "special" or "rich". It is for ANY kid with an interest in
working on a team to accomplish great things while learning and having
an awesome time doing it!
We encourage anyone interested in joining as a team
member, a mentor, a sponsor or as someone who wishes to help in any way
to contact us about our club!
River City Robots was formed and became a 501(c)3
organization chartered in Missouri in 2002. Membership consists of students primarily from
the St. Charles County area and adult professionals from area companies.
River City Robots Co-sponsors many FLL (FIRST Lego
league) teams for kids 9 to 14. For the 2006 Season we co-sponsored 7
teams! Our hopes are that some of these kids will eventually graduate to
the FRC Team 1094.
