Sponsor Update

Dear Sponsors,

A warm welcome from the Winona Robotics Team. We’re here to provide a brief update on our robot development for the upcoming robotics competition. Last week, the entire team worked hard and made significant progress on the base and arm mount. We designed a vertical moving claw in CAD and constructed a wooden prototype to bring our ideas into reality without wasting metal. Lastly, we updated this website, feel free to take a peek at it if interested. There are many pictures available there that we don’t want to bombard you with our short but sweet emails.

Thank you for being our loyal sponsor

We are proud to share that we have started on our FRC project this year! We have been preparing for a while and it is finally here, we are so excited to move along with our team to a possible victory, we’ll include a link to the FRC charged up animation. We have also recently joined the 7 rivers regional coalition(7RRC) which is a group of robotics teams around the Winona area.

We hope to contact some of you before the competition to figure out merchandise and parts we might need and we hope to have your support in the coming months.

This Year’s Competition (2020)

This season our exciting new challenge is called INFINITE RECHARGE. FIRST Robotics has created a partnership with Star Wars to create a brand new game for the FRC. In Infinite Recharge, our team will take on the roles of a brave squad of pilots operating a small, powerful droid to pick up and position fuel cells, operate a control panel, and park in a hanger area to activate our team’s shield generators. We’re very excited to tackle this season’s FIRST Robotics Competition and the challenges it will bring.
