The RC-robotic team of RCHS is going to St. Louis for the Robotic Championship competition, and they have a very small window of time to raise enough money to take approximately 20 students, including 1 from Midway, to the 5-day competition in St. Louis on April 24-27. Please check out their web-site!
Because the Full Metal Jackets won the Rookie All Star Award, they are invited to the FIRST World Championship. However, it is very expensive for them to go; they need money to pay for travel, rooms, and registration.
Please help if you can by donating on this website (http://rchsfullmetaljackets.wordpress.com/).
This award comes with an invitation to attend the FIRST World Championship to compete with 400 other teams in St. Louis April 24-27.
Click on this video link to see how the robotic competition works!
Please donate today! Thanks.
